Description
A very good route.
Pitch 1: This pitch is a bit nebulous - there are a few ways you can go. Climb or 3rd class up to the ledge about halfway between The Swift and Dappled Mare. Set up an anchor in a left-facing corner a few feet right of a vertical crack (40 feet).
Pitch 2: Climb the thinning crack system past one bolt. Place a thin piece and tip-toe past it: crux. The crack eases and breaks right. Pick a convenient scoop to belay in. Avoid setting up the belay where the route crosses Dappled Mare so you don't cause a traffic jam.
Pitch 3: Continue up and right to the top.
With a long rope and many slings, pitches 2-3 could be combined,
