Description
The Dylan Wall leads right out of the 4th pitch of the Scenic Cruise and connects with the second pitch of Journey Home. The independent pitches are 5.11+, 5.12-, and 5.7. The 5.11+ pitch has some scaly rock, but it seldom effects the climbing. The 5.12- pitch is technical and on stellar rock. Combine this with Twisted for a bigger day.
P1: (after the Scenic Cruise) Climb right from the belay and join the crack system on a pedestal. Thin pro and climbing leads to a shallow, leaning dihedral. 5.11 PG-13. Climb through steep hands and fingers to a corner with a jammed block. 5.11+. The belay requires a 3 Camalot, 1/4" piece, and a medium nut. 140'
P2: Climb a thin dihedral to a fixed nut and pin. Technical moves gain a thin crack finish. 5.12-. 70'
P3: Up and down on 5.7 traversing right leads to the middle of pitch 2 on Journey Home. 90'
Pitch 2 and 3 can be combined, but the second will get a pretty loose belay on the the crux moves.

Location
Start on Scenic Cruise and belay half way through the 4th pitch on a ledge. It is easy to see the diagonal crack from the ground, but the belay is NOT where it first leaves the Scenic Cruise , but another 30' up on a ledge that can be traversed to join the crack.
