Description
Pitch 1 (15 m)- Aid crux. Start on 1/4" stud, moving up past several bolts, mostly without hangers, on a pinned out crack. Free climb over bulge and up to a bolt with hanger. Optional belay here, or link with pitch 2.
Pitch 2 (15 m)- Continue up crack, eventually free climbing. Be kind to the bird that lives halfway up this pitch in the horizontal crack; he's friendly. Loose and dirty ~5.7 free climbing gets you to a crappy two bolt anchor- one with no hanger, one with a rusted Leeper.
Pitches 3-4 (~60 m)- Traverse right on easy but loose terrain, past two old bolts with Leeper hangers. The rock improves the further you go. Keep traversing up and around to summit. There is one new glue in on the summit. A 60 m rope might not reach to it, so it might be best to belay at one of the old bolts mid traverse.

comments on grade: Originally given A3, but definitely not now. The bolts near the crack on the lower portion bring down the grade a lot. Depends too if there are capscrews present or you have to have enough reach to put in your own. Probably A1 with capscrews in place. Maybe A2-3 if you don't use the bolts at all. Oct 17, 2017
