East TMT

5.10d, Sport, 70 ft (21 m),  Avg: 1.7 from 3 votes
FA: unknown
California > San Diego County > S San Diego County > Eagle Peak > Tan Man Tower

Description

Crux of the route is right after the 6th bolt. A fun and technical crux move made less fun by the quality of the rock.

The quality of rock on the east side of Tan Man is markedly poorer than of that on the west side, so be aware while climbing and treat every hand/foot as suspect.

Location

East side of Tan Man Tower just right of Homeboy, climb about 15 feet up to first bolt.

Protection

9 bolts to two-bolt anchor. Shared last bolt and anchor with Homeboy.
