Description

Start as for Cactus Pete's and then climb out right to the 2 bolt belay that is easily seen from the ground (about 40-50' up). Climb a 165+' pitch up and right then straight to the second hanging belay (2 3/8" bolts) past 6 (?) bolts. This route is a bit less run out than Cactus Pete's but roughly the same difficulty. It also boasts of rolling crystals for excitement (smear, tap toe, smear again!).
