In the early '90's the USFS banned all placement of bolts in the Superstition Wilderness. This unfortunately includes replacement of existing bolts. Violating this ban may result in climbing restrictions on this beautiful area. Please think twice and go bolt somewhere else.
Description
A fun route that seems a little harder than 5.5. A difficult start leads up to a tight chimney that you get to thrutch your way up. Good gear the entire way. It is probably wise to stop and belay after the chimney. Do a short and exposed traverse out right passing an old, rusty bong to another exposed crest of rock that will take you to the summit. A final airy step across that is protected by a bolt leads to the true highpoint.
This route felt harder than its neighbor Tinkerbell which is rated 5.7.
