Description
P1: 5.9
P2: 5.11a
Same start as Canadian Route. Climb to the first bolt then head up and left (but not as far left as the Canadian Route) to a small roof. On pitch 2 pull the roof and trend left. Anchors end about 3 meters above the anchors for Gringo Disco. This route is often climbed as one 50m pitch.
Variation on the start of pitch 2: you can follow bolts out left instead of pulling the roof (this is called Johns Got A Sausage).
Protection
Bolts with anchors.
[Hide Photo] The second pitch is bolted with these. There are two (rusted) modern bolts on the route but not in the crux.

On the second pitch there are two version the right is described above. The left goes up a rib left of the midpoint belay and the two starts merge at the third bolt. The right is burly on good holds the left is more technical face with good holds. Feb 15, 2020
