Description Suggest change

START - About 30-40 ft right of the "toe" of the slab, at a clean slab with a L-facing corner (photo) on the right (with lichen on the part of the slab that is next to the corner).

To the left of this clean slab a line of trees and bushes runs up the cliff 15 +/- feet and provides what might be an alternate start*.

P1 - Climb the clean slab ( crux, 5.5 - 5.6 PG-13 / R?) to a large flake. From the flake's top climb directly up to a bolt, then a 2nd bolt and on to a double bolt anchor. 115 ft 5.5 - 5.6

NOTE: A rap with a single 70m reaches the ground; a single 60m would probably reach the top of the line of trees.

P2 - Move up and right onto the pegmatite rock. Climb this up, trending a bit right for 100 +/- ft to a bolted anchor (2022) just left of a small overhang that is 15-20 ft above the lose-looking 3-4ft flake-lieing-on-the-slab. (which may get "trundled off, if it is actually lose) 100 +/- ft  5.4 

P3- Climb directly up the “ head wall”, passing just right of a small pine tree at the  top. Continue 30-40 ft to a double bolt anchor (2022). 80 - 90 ft 5.4 

P2 and 3 can be combined with a 70m, maybe even with a 60m. 

Descent- Rap the route with a single 70 M. 

. * ?Alternate Start? - Scramble up the line of trees and step right onto the slab about where RW is in the photo.

Location Suggest change

30-40 ft right, and slightly higher than, the "toe" of the slab.

Protection Suggest change

Std rack - medium sized cams especially if breaking up pitch 2.
