Description Suggest change

Pitch 1: Climb up the sustained thin crack 10ft right of Rikki Tikki Tavi. Good gear with face climbing movement. Gently pull over or skirt around the upper blocks (too solid to trundle) and walk the ramp right to a bolted anchor. A throw away approach pitch, climb P2 before rating the line 5.10

Pitch 2: Where else to go but up the tips layback! Float your way up the splitter and mantle up under the roof. Look upward and ponder reaching the overhead bolt while as pumped as you are. Once past the bolt, trend left to a hidden crack, then up through a short flare chimney. Clip one last bolt to keep your follower safe, then step left to an anchor and scenic stance. 5.11+

Single rap from the top anchor gets you down with a 60m

Location Suggest change

Start 10ft right of Rikki Tikki Tavi for the first pitch. The second pitch continue rightward above the ledge and can be seen from the path

Protection Suggest change

Single rack with extra 0.2-0.3 X4/1-2 C3 pieces.
