Description
This is a surprisingly fun route with varied climbing, good rock, and an old-school feel.
Start in the chimney on the left side of the Alley. Stem, Face Climb, or Chimney up 40' to a large ledge. Clip a bolt, then head up and slightly left to a second bolt. From here continue up aiming to the right of a small shrub on the ledge 70' above. The crux is after the ledge - head straight up past a bolt (5.10) to an anchor just below the summit.
Descent: Do NOT rappel the entire route. Rappel 90' to the large ledge at the top of the chimney, then walk off toward climber's left.
