Description Suggest change

While there are some semi-hollow flakes here and there, this is nonetheless an excellent 2-pitch route well worth climbing! Look for the tan speckled bolt hangers in the middle of the main wall above a large downed pine tree. Pitch 1 is a long pitch of face and flake climbing. There are two options for pitch 2. Both are short and steep, with the left being more moderate and probably better, and the right a little harder.

P1. Start in a short, wide, left-facing dihedral. Climb this through a small roof to liebacks above which lead to good stances on the face. Gain the right-facing flakes, and follow them to a roofy section (crux). Pull a funky move to gain another short flake system, and then finish on the face. The anchors have Mussy hooks, 90'. Gear: ~13 bolts. 

P2 (left). Start same as for right option. Clip first bolt long, then step left to bolt line in the left hand corner. Follow it using cool stems and jugs to a roof. Crank the roof on good underclings and liebacks to either anchor (the one for The Swarm up and left, or for the right variation of this line up and right). Gear: ~ 8 bolts.

P2 (right). Step left, and climb the dihedral and blunt arete past 3 bolts to a nice ledge below the overhangs. Crank a few big moves on big holds past 2 more bolts to the top and a rap anchor, 55'. Gear: 5 bolts, optional ~ #0.75 Camalot for a (very) easy topout. It's safe without it, but if you want to sew it up, bring this.
