Description Suggest change

I remember this being a fun climb but it’s been a while, so take this description with a grain of salt.


Pitch 1: Follow a crack in a grove to some drilled pin protected slab climbing up and right.  End on a big ledge with a nice bolted anchor.  5.9 75’

Pitch 2: Walk right on the ledge to a crack that gets you up to the next ledge 20’ up.  Then follow the big crack to a nice big ledge.  Belay off cams in the corner as the rappel anchor is near the edge out left. 5.10 125’

Pitch 3: Climb the corner crack up to a roof and some awkward moves over over the lip.  Head up and left to a crack that will take you to the summit. This pitch probably goes free at 5.11.   5.10 C1  80’

Rappel the route.

Not sure what the actual name of this tower is but we’ve been calling it Block Tower.  Let me know if you know the actual name and I’ll change it.
