Description

Climb the orange arete, moving left on holds to the base of the overhang. Pull over to a slabby section in the sweet dihedral. At the top of the dihedral, traverse right under the roof to top out.

Location

Hike North past the Painted Wall and the Love Tunnel. If you get to a protuding column of rock housing a chimney, you've gone too far.

Protection

Nine bolts, 2 bolt anchor. There's usually a bail biner at the crux.
