Description
Another Stone Mountain water groove. This water groove has a bit more shape, but still some polished areas and no bolts. Most information list this route as unprotected and X rated. Remember that this route was originally an unprotected solo route. Top roping the route after climbing Zoo Love or Dream Waves is an option as each has a pitch that comes to the same anchor location of P1.
P1 - 130' with no bolts and natural anchors. This water groove and route start at the 1st bolt of Dream Waves P2 along the dike. Various options exist for climbing to this starting point. Peer Pressure would be a option, plus Peer Pressure starts up the water groove with a traverse to the shared anchors of Dream Waves P2. Wet Dreams could then be continued from this point which would increase the protection. If starting from elsewhere consider your belay options and rope length. I did find an opportunity for small finger-sized gear (An offset cam was the only piece I got to hold solidly, but it was solid.) ~40' up which the climbing after this drops to 5.8 in my opinion.
P2 - 80' with no bolts and natural anchors. Zoo Love and Dream Waves also share this pitch for toping out. Easy climbing.
