Description Suggest change

The west-facing far right wall of Mariuolumne Dome, completely different approach than the main wall (Hobbit Book, etc). Mostly moderate routes, with some large roofs. Also home to the Al Dude testpiece (and ground-up bolted) 5.12 slab Testify.

Getting There Suggest change

Above Lake of the Domes, approach via the gully right of Drug Dome, or better by climbing something to the top of Medlicott Dome and hiking left.
