Description Suggest change

A two pitch classic. First pitch is 5.9 and is very well protected, making it a popular lead at the grade. The second pitch has some poorly protected easier climbing off the belay but the rest of the pitch has great climbing and pro.

P1. Climb the corner to the roof, then pull the roof on the left and continue to the big ledge with a two bolt rappel anchor. Most people rappel here...

P2. Scary 5.8 climbing up and right from the ledge leads to a short crack with a blade-like chockstone, totems or tri-cams may provide protection on this easier but serious section. Go up this short crack and then make a slabby traverse up and left to the obvious, long vertical crack. Sustained, fun jamming (crux) eventually eases up when the crack becomes a chimney, then ramble up to the top of the cliff to a two bolt anchor. Walk off. 

Protection Suggest change

Standard rack to 3" for the first pitch. Add a #4 camalot for the second pitch, and possibly some doubles in .5 - #1 camalot. A red or brown tri cam may help protect the initial runout on pitch 2.
