Description

Not my route, but to clarify the Hubbel guide, (his picture is much better than the topo). Find the ledge 5 minute walk up around right from the Helen's Dome area. Start 5' left of tree, traversing up right (PG) past the 2 bolts and then zig back and up to a so-so ledge for a gear anchor. Our 2nd pitch was short and followed the right-diagonaling crack up to the anchors on another climb at the overlap. (Sticks & Stones; lots of new bolts.) 165' ropes should reach the overlap given the age of the climb, but we weren't sure. Also, we could have traversed right to the heavily bolted line and up to the same anchors, but we were keeping in style with the original. We then sacked the trad ethos and followed the bolts for another 162' pitch. We rap'd with 2 ropes.

Location

It is on Helen's Dome South Face. On a ledge with a tree, Brave Cowboy (water-streak) is maybe 12 feet left of the tree. This starts about 5 feet left of the tree.
