Description Suggest change

A wild line on deteriorating rock.

The crux is the third pitch,  traverse right on grassy cracks to a ledge with a wild 7/8 foot wide rectangular break in the rock with a crack on the left side. Overcome the #5 overhanging crack on the left side of a chimney/ wide cut out of the rock with enticing exposure, then into a roof with wild stemming on the edge of the chimney feature and good locks up one crack then at the roof reach high and right and switch to and to a hand crack that cuts upwards and thins down to a #.1 sem which leads into a blank moderate face on somewhat crumbly rock onto a foot ledge and then the very top of the corner where without climbing the corner you walk on to the upper ledge and build an anchor save a BD #4 and some finger-sized gear for the anchor.  


P1 Follow the ramp to a roof with a finger crack in it to the left of the corner about 60M 5.3
P2 Move up about 50 feet over the roof and follow the grassy crack to the base of the corner belay there with BD #1, #2, or, #3  sized gear. 5.9
P3 Next traverse right on grassy cracks to the base of the chimney feature and hold on to your reins because its about to get Pretty Damn Western!!

DECENT walk/ left to tree and rap off a cord with a non-locker, if still there or leave your own stuff, down to a gully their rap of a fallen tree that is jammed on top of a live tree no cord. 70 M rope is nice but probably not necessary F.A. was with 64 M rope but nothing was a rope stretcher
