The approach. Follow the green line. The junction where you split right up the final approach wash is hard to find so just be diligent. If you find yourself scrambling up sketchy 4th class+ climbing, you are likely in the wash to the left and need to move further right. We made this mistake and found ourselves at the base of a 30 ft dried up waterfall.
Great opportunity for the mega-hero shot!

Rap Beta for Wasteland
Looking at the impossible looking pitch 3. Not as hard as it looks. The crux is all in your head.
Nothing but air below on the 3rd pitch.
This is The Wasteland as it appears from about halfway up the last drainage. The route begins behind the trees on the left side, just left of the right-leaning crack
