Description
Diamond is the second route moving right from the diagonal ramp that splits the upper and lower portion of Mayhem Cove.
The climbing involves pulling short overhangs for first 30 feet, then becomes less steep. Each overhang is followed by a reasonable resting spot, so despite its impressive length, it isn't really an endurance challenge.
I recall that Carville's guide fails to mention that there are anchors up top, and in fact there are.
Protection
11 bolts to a 2 bolt anchor with mussy hooks.
