Description Suggest change

This route is a 2 pitch OW on the left of the main wall of the Hippy Dome. The first pitch gets the sun early and the 2nd pitch is in the shade most of the day.

1st pitch starts wide (#8) and the crux is just getting established (5.9). Once in the crack, it is an easy 5.7 chimney to the top of the crack, then move past a tree and belay on a crack with a #3 and #4 cam.

2nd pitch: move belay up to the right by climbing a short slab. No need to build anchor since there is a nice flat area. The crux again is just getting established 5.10+. Move past some moderate moves into another nice 5.8 squeeze chimney.

From the top there are a few options to get down. There is a rappel anchor on the very top for a 2 pitch sport route that has not been bolted. May need to do 2 rappels from here. The other option is to rappel using the anchors of 7 after Quasimodo, although getting to them is sketchy. On the west side, downclimb using 2 bolts and walk all the way down by going north first then around to the left as you go down. Yes, it's kind of a maze. There are also rappel anchors for Swole and Flexi and El Dorado on the west side. This rappel will take you to the top of Manventure but you can just walk off by walking back to the end of the first pitch of the route and then down a fixed line. Getting lost is part of the fun.
