Description Suggest change

Pitch 1 - Start up a cool slab with nice jugs. Traverse slightly right on some easier ground then move up through a steeper section to the crux of the first pitch. This is immediately above a sub anchor which is meant for rappelling not belaying. Make a tough move above the sub anchor then continue up another slab. You will encounter one more delicate section just before the belay in an alcove. 5.10a 12 bolts 45 meters.
Pitch 2 - move right around the alcove then up a corner with thrilling exposure. Continue up and diagonally right to a cruxy boulder problem below a short face. Crank a couple of hard moves to a nice jug and then a good rest. Continue up the face to a slab to the anchor. 5.10b 4 bolts 15 Meters.
Descent - make a 30 meter repel to the sub anchor then one more to the ground.
Note - most people assume that this route is two pitches to the alcove, including past and present guide book authors. Due to this fact the true second pitch has likely only seen a few ascents.
