Please be respectful and keep this access open to climbers. Use posted photos for this area to familiarize yourself with where parking is and is not allowed. Access to all gates must remain available to a truck and trailer. Parking in any way that restricts access to the gates north of the highway will jeopardize access for climbing.
Description
While perhaps not a king line, this link-up does add an enjoyable new moderate route up the right side of Whippersnapper, and you get to climb the best part of Mutton Buster.
Start up Knowledge was their Treasure, following interesting, technical, low-angle climbing until a large horizontal cave/pocket just before the wall begins to steepen. From here, look left to see a single link-up bolt towards the upper part of Mutton Buster; pull an interesting move to gain the ledge, clip the link-up bolt, then traverse over to finish on Mutton Buster. Note that you will NOT clip the chain draw on Knowledge, you will traverse before that.
It's a good idea to use a long quickdraw on the first bolt of Mutton Buster to minimize rope drag. Cleaning the route is a bit of a pain - make sure to use a "follower" quick draw.
