Description
This route ascends the S arete of a boulder in the gully between what is listed on Mountain Project as the South and Southeast faces of Cap Rock. To reach the start, scramble up the descent gully for the Southeast Face (going past the base of Gram Theft Parsons). As you near the top, you'll pass under the right side of a large boulder. Circle around the boulder to end up under its south arete. Face climb to the top past one bolt. Falling before the bolt is clipped or near the top would have bad consequences. There is one bolt on top for an anchor.
