Description Suggest change

This is a pure dry tool route and is fairly low angle compared to its neighbors at the main wall in the Amphitheater. Because it is low angle it collects quite a bit of snow so it is best done in Summer/Fall or when the sun has had a chance to melt the snow off of the ledges.

To begin the route, walk out onto the obvious ledge, clip the first bolt from the ledge to prevent a large fall to the ground below you.  Proceed up low angle climbing on ledges and classic Hyalite rock. Fun low-angle climbing continues all the way to the anchor.

Location Suggest change

This route is 100ft to the left of Switchback Falls. Hike up the trail to Switchback Falls, you will see the obvious arching rock feature to your left, head to the left under the route, and up the slight hill. The route starts on the ledge.

Protection Suggest change

8 bolts to Chain Anchor
