Description
This extension of "Nemo" is sport bolted 5.6 multi-pitch and it doesn't pretend to be more than that. That said, the upper slab has beautiful golden stone and is totally worthy for the grade and may deserve another star.
Perfect for the newbies to gain a little air and get an intro to multi-pitch with a 2 rappel descent to the base with one 60m rope.
1. Continue past Nemo anchor with a 5.6 mantle up and right then up the slab going hard left from the last bolt. 4 bolts to a bolted anchor at a nice stance on a huge block. If linked from the ground it is ~120' and you need 10 draws. You can also obviously stop at the Nemo anchors and then pitch this out as a short (~50') pitch if you want to practice your multi-pitch change-overs or don't have enough draws.
2. Up and left on the beautiful 5.6 golden slab with mostly easy ground and just enough spice. 4 bolts to a bolted anchor, 70'.
Rappel the route with one 60m rope, or if needed, scramble down the gully 3rd class to the North after going over the top.
One 60m does barely reach the ground on the second rappel from the More Nemo intermediate anchor at the Block Ledge. Be careful to be sure you match your ends and find the middle of your rope. Don't rap off the end.
A rare summit for Bowman and fun exposure.
