Description Suggest change

This is an excellent, steep slab climb on perfect granite. Start up the steepening slab to the first bolt, and don't forget to breathe. Clear a small lip, take advantage of the big rest in the middle, and then levitate up the face. Distribute your weight thoughtfully, and squeeze a tiny, flaky hourglass to pull through the crux. Do NOT bail into the chossy corner to the right. This is nice and long, so make sure to have two ropes if you want to get down. Otherwise, you'll be compelled to fire the 5.12 roof crack that looms above.

Location Suggest change

It is on left side of Weller Slab. Locate bolts about 60 feet left of Two Ears. Bring 2 ropes for descent or a 70m.

Protection Suggest change

10 bolts to a nice ledge with bolt anchor and 75 pounds of chain. The Perkins' guidebook says 8 bolts - wrong!
