Description

This route is named for its position in the amphitheater and the dendritic/branching options.

Start on the platform just left of the bent pine tree. Climb the 5.3 ramps (staying right of the first bolt for Dine-o-mite) 15 feet to the first bolt. Continue up another 15 feet to the small roof. There is one good hand hold in reach above the roof. Find a way to pull through and up to a solid stance above, 5.10a. This sequence may be harder with a shorter reach. Good 5.9 face climbing above can be eased by stemming a foot back to the corner. When the bolts transition onto the right wall, the 'easy' route (5.9) stays left of the bolts up high into the corner. Get high enough to use the horizontal crack in the roof with your hands, then walk your feet right across the face. Pull around the corner, and finish up to the two bolt anchor.

A more direct line 2 feet right of the bolts under the roof goes up the small corners and thin cracks at 5.10c.

The right-most variation steps across right after the low crux, then follows up an easy corner system into a short traverse left on underclings and bad feet. There is a rest before a powerful 5.11a roof section near the top.

Location

Dinedrite is the right most route in the Dines Amphitheater. It starts from the constructed belay platform 20 feet past the huge tree. The start is shared with Dine-o-mite.
