Description Suggest change

A very easy route with an opportunity for some stemming! Typical Camelback choss, with pebbles aplenty. Just like all other routes, expect mostly feet with moderate hands. Still very easy climbing!

Location Suggest change

Follow the approach to Bobby's Rock, and walk to the upper tier of the formation on the South Eastern corner. This is an easy walk up approach that you would also take to set up top ropes for The Flute, Fry Babies, and Crumble City. Walk to the end of the upper tiers ledge heading south. Here you'll see a chimney formed by a detached pillar of rock. Look up the climb and you'll see a secondary ledge and yet another large detached pillar of rock. This second pillar forms a large chimney against the main rock face.

Start by climbing the boulder directly or by stemming up the start!

Protection Suggest change

(5) 12mmx100mm 304 SS Sleeve Bolts lead to a 3 bolt anchor station. The anchors are 2 Wave Bolts and 1 Fixe Hardware 10mmx150mm SLB. Rappel hardware is present.

Use an extended draw on bolt #3 if following up the crack on the left at the first notch/lip of rock. If climbing the right face of the notch, use a long or a double runner on this bolt to prevent rope drag. Do the same with the next bolt before entering the main chimney.

The wave bolts at the anchors hammered in a bit to the left, so the anchors favor the climber following the route from the chimney. If attempting to top rope the route; build your anchors off the left and middle bolt. Orient a fixed master point pointing directly down the split formed by the detached pillars that make the chimneys.

DO NOT LOWER OFF THE RAPPEL RING!
