Description
So there you are at the Arrow wall and all of the classics are occupied. What to do? Try Red Pillar.
P1: Climb an easy right-facing, left-leaning corner / gully just left of Three Doves. From the ledge on top, climb up clean rock to steeper ground. Place gear and work up and left, past an old pin, and up to the GT Ledge. Definitely on the stiff side of 5.5, 100'.
P2: From the GT Ledge, step right about 10' and look for an obvious right-facing corner. Either climb straight up to it, or climb the face to the right then head back to the corner. Head up the corner and cracks, then step left onto the arete, aiming to pass the overhang at the notch. A fun, well-protected slot takes you to the top. 5.5, 100'.
P2 belay is most easily built off of solid trees past the slot. To access the rappels head climbers right about 20 feet to a clearly marked climbers trail (Arrow Raps). It takes two rappels with a 70m rope
Descend via Arrow or Three Doves rappels.
