Description 

Arete feature to the right of Ledgarithm. The holds are big and the exposure is high. Crumbles a bit but will clean up to be stellar.


Location 

Start climbing the slab about 15 feet right of Ledgarithm. Walk off the top(recommended) or rappel off the top down to Ledgarithm and continue down that route.


Protection 

Pitch 1: 8 Bolts to Ring Anchors.
Pitch 2: 8 Bolts to 2 Bolts Anchor.
Pitch 3: 10 Bolts to Ring Anchors.

A few slings will help with rope drag.

I did this today in two pitches. I took only sport draws and the rope drag was truly heinous as I started up the section above the belay ledge mentioned by Christian in the description. So much so that I didn't think I could make it to the top. I downclimbed a bit and belayed my partner up from the anchor mentioned by Christian, then continued to the top. A few longer runners at strategic bolts would no doubt help.

Christian shows a good eye on this route; fun, lots of easy climbing with a few short sections of somewhat harder moves. There is one bit that can't be more than 5.5 because of the huge handholds, but it is exposed and a tiny bit overhung and so is really a blast.

We got off in three rappels. The walk off is probably faster but my partner for the day hates walk offs.

I added a first pitch to this route and another bolt halfway so it is now easy to do in 3 pitches. Enjoy!
