Description
This is a great climb. It has minimal seeps and was climbed in a 3 hour break between rain storms.
P1:
option 1: 5.10+? Climb up the wide crack to right of arete (Jaws) until you are able to do a crack switch left to the arete. Make a combination of face/crack/arete moves. Don't be afraid to use both sides of the arete. Milk your rests, and blast through the upper crack. Belay at the upper of two 2 bolt anchors. (most awesome)
option 1b: climb Jaws to the anchor. (pretty neat)
option 2: climb the 5.10- route “Corked Corner” to the left of the arete.(easiest)
P2: 5.10 Scamper up to the bolt line. Crux is between second and third bolts. The easiest line uses holds and stances on both sides of the arete.
P3: 5.9 Enjoy 10 bolts of 5.8 climbing to the 3rd anchor.
Descent: Rap the route with 3x 20m raps. You can also rap directly down the overhanging face right of Jaws if you have a tagline (it's ~60 meters)
