An adventurous route which gets you to a spectacular location. Essentially a tour of different climbing styles up a nearly 100 foot section of wall. It has schist and quartzite, some face climbing, inside and outside corners, a nice but way too short crack, a brief slab section and a steep finish. Really, it has a little of everything.
Start up the easy ledgy intro. Navigate the kinda thin, schist face section into a corner and up to a comfortable ledge around bolt 5 or so. Decide how you will tackle the striking arete feature. Once you have done this, gain another ledge and Boulder up to a crack, scamper an easy slab and finally play find-that-hold through the last headwall to the comfortable ledge and the anchor.
Ps. From this anchor it is convenient to access both Losing Eleven and High Roll (on which a bolt has been added to allow for a direct start to be climbed from the top of Resurrection Stone).
On the right side of main cliff there is a gully/corner which marks the start of White Toad. This route is just to the left of that gully/corner

The start will totally clean up. I haven’t even scrubbed the 5.0 true beginning. I think it’s going to be well loved. May 22, 2023

Note if you go up this with your set of 12 sport draws you will be SAD because you will be out of draws at the crux right before the anchor and will be suffering from terrible rope drag. USE ALPINE DRAWS. Sep 29, 2024
