Description 

The Master Scriptorian climbs the beautiful, white tiered slab exposed by the rockfall that eliminated Mountain Monkey Swing (K. Davis, B. Robins, 1985). Scramble 200 feet up the left side of the Great White Icicle--easy 4th to 5th class--to the base. Climb balancey moves on crisp edges past two bolts. Mantle the first roof, then stem your way up the corner, taking advantage of the small wires and cam placements... Mantle past the second roof and onto the steeper slab above. After two bolts, the climbing eases as face holds and cracks appear. Belay from a stance on a protruding block; the bolt can be backed up using small wires or cams.


Protection 

Bring QDs and a light rack--small wires and small to medium cams.

Thanks for the post! Looks like another great line in an area with some great new routes! I can't wait to check it out. I was wondering how that "New Rock" would climb.
Sweet!
