Technically starts on the lower ledge up 2 bolts to the belay ledge with a rap station. You might just bypass this lower section or climb it and bring your second up to the narrow ledge. After this start up the left bolt line on the slab on silver hangers (Magic cats diverts after the first two bolts out left on painted hangers). Trend up and generally straight to a bulge and end on the anchors with loweroffs shared with Jug or Not.

Location

start about 6 feet to the left of the rap station on the narrow ledge.

[Hide Comment] Lowering is pretty nasty for your rope sheath over a sharp edge, but there are permabiners on the anchors. I prefer to rappel here to save my rope. Aug 2, 2020
