Description
Climbs the right arete of Rites of Spring, then follows the old aid seams out on the face a little to the right. Ends at the same height as P2 of Rites of Spring. Approach via Twitch/Free Beaks. From the Free Beaks anchor jog left onto Rites of Spring for a few feet (no gear needed) to reach the first bolt on P2.
The logistics of doing this are a little tricky, particularly finding a comfortable belay for the Belly of the Beast (P2.) Best option is doing Twitch and belaying at the base of Free Beaks, or belaying off the Free Beaks anchor (semi-hanging, not comfortable.)
The stated length of 100' is for the second pitch alone. It's closer to 65m from the ground with the pitches combined.
Two rope rapp from the top anchor/belay to the ground, or 2 35m rapps.
