Description Suggest change

Challenging slab right off the ground. 

From the walk-up belay ledge, go up about 15' of Cloudbeams to where you can reach left to clip the bolt. Move left to the fingertip edge just over the overlap, and climb up the face between Baron and Cloudbeams. Ends on the Jolly Pocket ledge (also end of p1 of Cloudbeams and the extended versions of Stars and Baron). From JP ledge, you have a choice of several second pitches that are also mainly friction: Steel Pulse p3 (just do an easy 20' traverse left), Bad Reputation p2, and Jello.  

You can easily TR the main part of this pitch by walking up the gully to where you can traverse onto the ledge on top of the Cloudbeams rib. There are two bolts here, one makes an excellent directional, the other can be supplemented with a nut for the belayer's anchor. It is better to TR belay from here (better pics and better views).

Location Suggest change

Walk past the base routes of LO Point, take the trail up to Daddy Wall, then follow the trail back to the east edge of LO Point to the obvious ledge with one bolt for the belay. You can supplement this belay with a nut or two. 

Protection Suggest change

A nut or two for the start, before the first bolt. Then 6 bolts.
