Description Suggest change

This is one of Sunset's truly outstanding routes. It has a little of everything: roofs to pull, crack climbing, face climbing. It's a long line on beautiful, well-protected rock.

A bouldery start powers you through a blocky roof to a ledge. Follow a crack system to another roof about midway; after pulling the roof, continue with face climbing to the top. Make generous use of runners to avoid rope drag. A 60-meter rope is just enough to make the rap.

Location Suggest change

Starts around the corner right of Freedom Chimney, about a 20-minute walk from the trail split.

Protection Suggest change

Mostly small to medium nuts and cams, though some larger gear can be helpful in the lower roof section. Bolted anchors.
