Description
1. Climb the thin crack up to a blocky overhang. Once past the overhang, belay at a large pine tree. 5.8.
2. Climb up to the base of an open book, move to the nose on the left side of this, then go up to the left side of the obvious overhang. Climb the overhang (crux), then go to the right edge of the face. After that, it's straight to the top.

Location
About 150 feet or so right of the nose of the High Exposure Buttress. Go past the Third Trapps Chimney, then look for a large, right-facing flake about 15-20 feet high. This is the start of Obstacle Delusion. Alpine Diversions is 15 feet or so right of that. You should see a short, indistinct crack that is immediately left of a small chimney.
Beware of pine sap from the tree! Apr 15, 2010
P1 starting move sucks for shorties - I squeezed myself into the chimney on the right to avoid it. Oct 4, 2010

Pretty good climb. The first move is pretty much the whole enchilada on pitch one. Pitch two's first overhang is a good challenge. Dec 5, 2011
