Description
On the approach to Reggie Dome a large dark face is the first thing encountered, facing west. This face route runs up the middle of this rock, starting directly behind an obviously large pine tree. Climb past a bolt and follow a 1/4 inch seam/crack protectable in only one place by a .75 camalot or similar. 40 feet later another bolt is encountered. Go straight up here for harder moves, or veer left from the bolt and follow big holds to the top. A bit contrived, and could use another bolt between the two existing to make it better for the beginner leader (it is beginner material)
