Description
This long route is a 3-star pump with great steep climbing on a patina covering face. It is only marred by a couple hard to clip bolts.
Start by scrambling up a short chimney to the left of the climb. It is the first climb on the exposed ledge on the left. The pumpy crux comes in the first 4 bolts through steep terrian. The crux is clipping the 4th bolt, since it was placed to the right of the best holds. The bolts above are well spaced, which will keep you on your toes.
You can lower with a 60M, but your belayer need to be on the upper ledge at the start of the climb. With a 70M you can lower to the ground.
