Description

I saw the route name "Orphan" mentioned in the description of 15 Pesos so maybe this is Orphan??? There are a lot of loss death blocks to avoid at the bottom. Start under these and move around the left side of the roof. Once abreast of the parallel cracks travers left to establish in the crack system. This middle section looks aesthetic from the bottom. There are a couple of fun moves but there is still some suspect rock and the cracks are flaring and grainy. So I didn't personal have high confidence in my gear here. Above the cracks, there is nice exposure and a view but the grade decreases dramatically.

Location

This route starts just to the left of the first pitch of 15 Pesos and shares 15 Pesos's anchor at the top.

Protection

Gear. Down low is mostly .5 to #2. I actually plugged in a #3 up top. Mostly up high the cracks are very shallow and flaring and funky tri-cames were all I was able to use. Two bolts with fatty hangers on top.
