Description
Best done in two pitches. Finish first pitch by traversing the horizontal crack and belay from the left facing flake which takes good pro, or the new anchors at the top of Second Date. 6 to 8 bolts depending how you go and a few small cams/nuts to fixed anchors above the lip (rap rings not visible from ground). This route starts just left of the cracks of Second Date. It begins up a run-out but relatively easy arete to the first bolt (visible from ground ~30 ft up), and then moves into balance intensive slabby face climbing. The bolt lines split off in different directions near the top, or you could split off up through the vegetated gully. This one sports some old and new bolts, and it is definitely a rope stretcher. Great thrill!
