Description

Climbs up a wandering face to a ledge and roof. Climb through the roof, and up the nice arĂȘte above.

This climb would be pretty classic if it had some more traffic, but it's still a bit dirty.

Location

A few hundred yards farther down the trail from the Herbivore area.

I believe the picture of the route is incorrectly labeled as #35 in the Kelly Brown book.

Protection

Bolts. Pretty rusty as of 5/2016.

[Hide Comment] The bolts and anchors have been updated with hardware donated by the ACSA. With growing traffic this route is cleaning up into quite a nice route. Personally, I think 11D in generous. But you know, it probably was with all the lichen and dirt that use to be on it. Do yourself a favor and forgo the 100th send on Herbivore and check it out. Apr 11, 2020
