Description
This route has sat unfinished for many years with only one bolt and two anchors. It has been lead ground up and from traversing into it from Welcome to Paradise with only the one bolt. Due to ground fall potential, lack of traffic, and the fact that it sat for so long unfinished we decided to finish it.
Start from the block just left of Welcome to Paradise. Pull the ground level overhang through good edges until you catch the rail about midway up. (PLEASE NOTE: it is possible to take a groundfall from here while clipping the second bolt...however you have a great hold and good feet for making the clip. Just exercise caution.) Finish on good edges at a 2 bolt belay.
