Description
The arete left of "Adios Larry". First pitch starts in a stemming chimney and is 5.9 climbing through great quality rock and very cool formations on the arete. About 100 feet gets you to a nice ledge with a 2 bolt anchor. Second pitch steps up from the ledge and gets right into the crux that is well protected with 3 bolts. Rock quality looks poor, but is surprisingly good and DAS cleaned it up well. Clear the crux and easier climbing leads to the top of the formation. 2 bolts on top can be used to anchor, but descent from the rap chains that we placed above "Donde Esta Larry?", to the right of "Adios Larry".
Location
Around the corner left of Adios Larry -- step up into the cool chimney that leads to Hidden Splendor area and this route ascends the arete directly above.
Protection
About 9 bolts on first pitch and about 6 on second. If you do as dyno single pitch 15 draws with some long ones should be fine.
