Description
Pitch 1 (5.7, 140'): 4 bolts + gear to bolted belay.
Pitch 2 (5.7, 180'): 6 bolts + gear to bolted belay (bit of a runout on easy terrain without gear).
Location
Scramble up and right of Bull Dozier; base of route will be across from a large platform (flat-topped boulder). Looking up route the first pitch has undulations / shelves which look a little like ripples I guess.
Descend via rappel (two raps with two 60m ropes) or continue up a third easy short pitch to a crack & gear belay, then walk off the dome (see description of Holdless Horror).
Protection
6 draws, cams from 0.6 to 1.25".
