Description Suggest change

Begin from atop the boulder/rock pile as for Angle of Declination. Stick clip and traverse left underneath the roof toward the corner. Pull around the small roof just left of the first bolt. After clipping the third and final bolt don’t get suckered into the easy corner straight above you. Instead traverse hard right across the face then go straight up on sloping pockets to make a hard lockoff anchor clip.

The bolting feels very contrived forcing you away from easier terrain just to do a couple face moves to a non-existent anchor stance. This was originally a trad route that got retro bolted - I think the original finish would have been straight up the easy corner. I feel this route would have been worth another star if bolted that way.

Location Suggest change

In the first area if heading right from the climbers trail to The Beach. Second bolted line you will encounter right after Angle of Declination.

Protection Suggest change

3 glue in bolts to anchor. Like some of the other routes in this area there is no hardware on the anchor. You will have to rappel off the 2 glue in bolts.
