Description Suggest change

This route starts the same as the first pitch of Escaping Time which was originally stopped short as a single pitch. Instead of going up and left when you reach the roof traverse right. Exit from under the roof to gain another corner that faces left. Climb over this blocky section and onto the face above. Belay at the bottom of right facing corner with a huge roof above. 5.10

Pitch 2 climb the corner/face and traverse right under the roof eventually pulling around into the next vertical corner. Be mindful of the large detached block at your feet when doing so. Could be solid but I don’t touch it. Climb this corner to above. Pitch 2 & 3 have been combined before just be mindful of your placements and extend to avoid terrible rope drag or pitch it out. 5.10

Pitch 3 Easy climbing up slab/face through a brushy section. 5.6

Pitch 4 Climb the large fun steep corner on the left. The original final pitch to Digital Delight will be the other corner on the right. 5.8/9?

Protection Suggest change

Can’t remember the rack but probably doubles to a one and maybe a single 2& 3. Some medium size nuts? An offset nut or cam in the .5/.75 range helps protect the boulder problem on the first pitch but I have also climbed it without. No fixed protection.
