Description
This route begins on the brown patina face just downhill from the Gold Wall gully. Originally established in two shorter pitches, the lower half of the route features stellar, 5.9 face and crack climbing and can be toproped from an intermediate stance with a bolt--the bolt can be backed up using finger to hand-sized gear...
The upper half, however, is the business: if climbing the line as a long, single pitch, continue past the bolt where you'll encounter tenuous stemming above tricky, thin gear. Routefind your way to an alcove beneath a small roof. Pull the roof to gain the exposed, parallel cracks above, then finish on patina holds, ala the City of Rocks, to a comfortable ledge along the ridge. Belay takes 1" to 2.5". A large, slung block--to the climber's right--provides an escape; a double-rope rappel reaches the base.
