Description
This is a great route....with a bad landing.Rumor has it that Bill Pre-clipped the fixed pin at the start. I was there that day and I am sure he did not,ultimatly who gives a fuk. The direct finish is way fun and pumpy(first led by Rich Bechler 1981)
Location
The north face of Leaning Tower right off the trail and directly above some ugly looking talus.
Protection
Ther use to be a fixed pin after the lunge,then its stoppers and small cams. the start is unprotected or...is it?

This route was popular for a couple of years in the early 90s - it often had a TR set up. Nowadays its pretty quiet. Nov 23, 2011
