Description
This is a good link up of the first pitch of Immaculate Conception, and the second pitch of Son of Immaculate Virgin.
The start is located at a creaky flake just right of Son of Immaculate Virgin's right-facing corner. Begin by climbing the flake and pulling a short roof to a ledge. Continue straight up the face towards a slung block and belay here (or on gear above).
For a second pitch, climb straight up the face following the best clean holds (trend right; some might find this section a little run out...it gets a PG rating in the Williams guide) before jug-hauling the last bit to the GT ledge. Rap to the ground in two ropes, or to the slung block with one.
Overall a nice (2 star - Williams) route to do in you are in the area.
