White Lines Direct

One of the first routes up this immaculate face. The FA party scrambled up & right through wandering but easy terrain to the sloping ledge system to access the plated face, then traversed out left along the ledge until placing their first of 3 bolts (old SMC rusted bolt), allowing the climber to head up without any rope drag, keeping the rope running straight to the ground. 

Nowadays it makes sense to start in a mini-bolted corner leading to the ledge (this more engaging start is thanks to a newer route that starts below White Lines Direct's original first bolt & continues straight up later on.)  

The ledge & the first rusted bolt w/ SMC hanger deposit you onto the beautiful white-plated face. Trend up & left towards the prominent brown water streak - ignore a line of newer bolts w/ metollius hangers straight above, continuing up & left towards a weakness, tying off a couple of chickenheads along your way. A finger-sized cam protects some spicy moves to the last bolt near the end of this long single pitch. 

Easy to belay from Riding the Rails two-bolt anchor
