Description [Edit]

Variation for start of Gardens of Babylon. More challenging and satisfying. Traverse to finish on Gardens.

Location [Edit]

Thin seam to the right of Gardens of Babylon, the left-most (downstream) climb.

Protection [Edit]

Top rope. I used anchors for Gardens, but there may be bolted anchors directly above this start. Walk up to the left.
