Description
Start low under the bolt off of a small block. Please use the mono pocket, seriously it too cool to not use, plus it helps. Continue up from the bolt to the large overhanging crack, then begin the traverse right. The traverse is 40' but stays ~20 off the ground, so regular gear needed to protect swinging ground falls for leader and follower. Gear beta: I use two #6 and two #5 plus an assortment of smaller gear to make it a casual lead. It can be done fairly comfortably with single #5 and #6 and smaller gear, but I don't like the flexing of the large blocks that take the smaller gear. The gear options will end with another 20' traverse right to a point under a bolt. Another option for finger size or smaller gear, which I sling with a 4' to reduce drag, to protect the moves up to the bolt over the bulge. One could clip the 2nd bolt of Caveman with a 6' or 8' sling. I recommend some protection here as a fall pulling the bulge on potentially crumbly rock would have you colliding with the detached block below. Pull up over the bulge and begin working back to left after clipping the bolt. You will cross a water groove to gain the anchors.
Definitely a unique climb for Stone and a moderate I'd consider worthwhile. I mean a rack of large cams, plus a mono pocket move.
Location
Travel the non-existent path up to the terrace area on the far left side of the South Face, uphill from Block Route, past Fantastic, keep going through the briars. At the top of the rise is a large detached block under Caveman. Work over or around a couple boulder on the way back down about 30' left of the detached block. Find a bolt under on the face under the large overhanging crack feature.
