Description Suggest change

climb a short bolt ladder to the lip. from there i lassoed a small broken stump about the size of a red bull can and 1/2 aided, 1/2 freed over the lip. we added a pin and left a runner on it after the fact just behind the stump. quick, fun, easy little bag and tag.
we hear the FA of the tower was about a year and a half ago by some highliner friends of andy lewis. we understand they tossed a rope over and jugged up. thats all we know. our route, the floridian, was so named because Orr and Noy are from florida.

Location Suggest change

3 miles up 313 from 191. obvious on the right just before the switchbacks. from some talus, just past the tower, hike benches past, then back and up to the base. start on the notch side (opposite the road). looks like a smaller version of mexican hat. one double 70 rap get you back to the start bench.

Protection Suggest change

3 quickdraws. 1 long runner. a few cams very optional.
