Description Suggest change

El Pump Real is the linkup climbing El Camino Real into the Corner Pump Station into one massive pitch. The pitch is exactly 65 meters to the stance you would belay at for the second pitch of Howling at the Wind and requires some small stoppers (that you may need to leave) to get down. I left 3 equalized stoppers and lowered with a light 80 meter rope to the anchor of El Camino Real.  I can’t recommend this route enough and would love to see a bolted anchor at the top of the Corner Pump Station  in the future to encourage future ascents this way.

Linking these into one massive pitch sure felt like 13- effort, but I will leave the grade at 12+ here.
