Description Suggest change

This route was previously posted as “A nice toprope”, and is now an independent line called Scatterbrain. Start 10 feet left of Fool’s Gold. Climb face and slab following a vertical tufa/dike feature on great rock.

Per T D: this climbs a spectacular series of granite dikes (like a granite tufa) up a very steep slab. Stem, smear, crimp, zig-zag, and highstep your way up the featured rock until the dike briefly peters out at a headwall crux. This packs about 200 feet of climbing into a 140 foot pitch. It starts left of Beam Me Up Scotty.

Protection Suggest change

13 bolts to a bolted anchor on a ledge, 40m.
