Description
Start on the right side of the main face, which is best approached from the base of Abstract Roller Disco, by scrambling up and left through boulders. Begin at the highest boulder up and left from the start of Perverts in Power. This is about 75 feet to the right of Compassion of the Elephants.
Pitch 1: Climb an unprotected ramp (4th or easy 5th Class) just beneath a prominent right-slanting crack and set up a belay at a 2-bolt anchor.
Pitch 2: Sustained moves (10+/11-) lead up and left past six bolts to a nice ledge and two-bolt anchor.
Pitch 3: Climb easier slab (5.7+/5.8-) past three bolts to the top, and another two-bolt anchor.
Two rappels from here (both less than 100 feet) get you back down to the base.
