Description
The route follows the long off-ramp, that starts off of Zocalo Ledge, for two pitches and follows the left-leaning ramp that takes off from the off-ramp. the first two pitches are around 5.6. the third pitch is 5.7+ and the crack can be quite dirty making placements harder to find. Rappelling Offramp is the preferred decent for West face routes. After the third pitch, belay off the rails.
Location
Approach from the stairs until the stairway opens west. Hop the railing rocks and walk to the first rappel anchor, 10 feet to the left. Hug the curving wall until it akes you around the corner, to the next rappel at the end of the ledge Rappel off of two more chained anchors until you are on Zocalo ledge (the large ledge that splits the west face in half) the route starts where the rap ends.
