Description Suggest change

Start in the chimney that faces the road a short walk south from the main Grotto area. High first clip leads to some chicken head pulling and runout, low angle climbing. Shares an anchor with How the West Was Won. 

Location Suggest change

Once you've located the main Grotto gully, head towards the road (Hwy 244) a short distance, this is the obvious chimney on the right with a high first bolt.

Protection Suggest change

Bolts. Maybe 6-7. May be able to supplement with a light rack. Two 60 M ropes to rap or one 70 M. First bolt is 25 feet from the ground and a light rack with extension can definitely protect to the first bolt. Also slings to girth hitch some of the horns. Long run out after the last bolt but easy climbing. Anchor is not visible from the last bolt. Look for the anchors on the left side of the bolt line.
