Description
Rappel from a tree that sits above a chimney that splits the brown shield 210' to two bolts atop the second pitch. From bolts, rappel down and left into the large, left-facing corner to a ledge below a large, detached flake (it seemed super solid to us). From this ledge, rappel 220' to ground on a fixed 70m, and climb the first pitch with the other 70m (unless you want to drag up the extra rope on your back...).
P1: climb broken cracks and flakes with good pro here and there that wander up into and beyond the left side of an upside down "u", 5.11- 220'.
P2: climb up left-facing corner to top of big flake. Climb up corner 10 more feet, then cut right across the face towards a crack near the arête. Climb around arête and up to bolted belay, 5.10 PG-13, 80'.
P3: climb up face on edges and flakes past three pitons and placing occasional small cams and nuts to a big ledge at the base of a chimney, 5.11 PG13, 120'.
P4: climb up chimney to the top, 5.9, 80'.
