Description
Very Nice climb! Begin about 10 feet right of the start of Dulfer and Banana Peel. Climb a 5.6 or 5.7 runout slab about 20 feet to a small left facing corner. (This is the same start as Rolling Stone) Clip the fixed piton and climb the corner straight up, past 2 bolts and a few gear placements. The climbing is well protected and engaging (ie hard to figure out in places). At about 80 feet, step right and find an obvious ledge with a chain anchor. Pitch 1 is 5.11a or b. For pitch 2, step left about 10 feet and climb a vertical crack with a couple bolts up to another chain anchor. Pitch 2 is about 80 feet long, and about 5.9 or 10a. To descend, do 2 rappels from the chain anchors. Each rappel is less than 100 feet. Or you can do an adventurous descent to the east, involving low 5th class scrambling. (Random info: from the first pitch anchors, you can top rope 5 routes!). Bring a rack of stoppers, and cams to 3 inches.
