Description Suggest change

P1 (5.11b) - Start off the block up and right from where the picture is taken. Gain a rail that takes gear and then push up through thin slab moves at Bolt 1 & 2 (crux). Climb past 4 more bolts and a couple of gear placements. Save a #2 for the run to the two bolt anchor - 115 ft

P2 (5.11) - Start by making an awkward top out style mantle boulder problem (crux). Then climb the groove through sustained 5.8-5.9 terrain. Towards the end the groove trends a little left. Can stay out on the face or in the groove. Aim left for a large ledge with moss pads under it. Two bolt anchor - 165 ft

The Select book topo says there are three bolts on P1. We found 6. At some point in the past someone else updated this hardware to SS

We found an old, poorly chopped self drive bolt about 1/3 way up P2 but no other signs of previous passage. Unknown what this single bolt was originally for

Location Suggest change

First obvious line of bolts right of Emerald City

Protection Suggest change

Gear to #4 + Bolts. Doubles to #2 could be handy - Two ropes to get down from P2. Can just barely get down with a 70m from P1. Tie knots and stay climbers right to higher ground
