Description
WOW - A little surprised this one hasn't been added yet. Nice climbing with a bit of everything and long pitches! Pitches 2 & 3 are fantastic requiring some granite FUNK.
Pitch 1 5.10d 9 bolts - From the natural break head up and left. Follow broken blocks and cracks toward the bolted wide crack and small ledge. Climb the wide crack to a no hands traverse (literally) left, then up and back right to a ledge.
Pitch 2 5.11b 10 bolts 60 meters - Follow the bolt line straight up, passing the large triangle roof on the left. Climb up discontinuous cracks and face. Follow thin cracks right to finish this pitch.
Pitch 3 5.11d 14 bolts 35 meters - Start right of the anchor. Climb the face and then to the groove corner system. Continue up the corner system to a stance on a small tower. The only gear needed for this pitch is cams in the #2–#3 range.
Pitch 4 5.11c 5 bolts 35 meters - Climb the steep patina bulge up into a groove head up moderate ground to the anchor.
Five 35 meter raps to get back down. Just look around, you'll see the other anchors as you climb.
