Description Suggest change

P1 - from the top of the approach trail, follow the left-facing corner of Sons of Ralph until it turns left to form a large roof. Traverse along the roof for a while and build a belay midway. The bolt just above the roof and/or small tricams & C4s below the roof makes an excellent gear anchor. Approx 30m?

P2 continue the traverse, clip a piton, cross a wet streak, scramble through some bushes, and at the end of the roof, go up and slightly right. There is a two-bolt rap anchor with rings in a large bowl. Watch closely for these since they're rusty and blend into the rock. If you hit a single bolt in a water groove, you've gone too far (and aren't to the right enough). Approx 30m?

Location Suggest change

At the end of the first approach trail - same start as Sons of Ralph

Protection Suggest change

Small cams, tricams, nuts. Plentiful gear in the arching corner. Optional wide gear for the easy terrain at the start.
