Description Suggest change

Start either on the loose but easy gulley on the left or the bolted start on the right to gain the ledge below the crack. Climb a thin handcrack through a few bulges before it widens at the top - a fun and exciting finish given you can see all the way through the columns!

Some cleaning done and an anchor added in spring 2025. With some more cleaning, it could be a 3-star route. Watch out for loose rock / holds.

Originally rated 5.9 in the book; I found it harder than other 5.9's at Vantage.

Location Suggest change

Route 35 in the book but I am pretty sure it is the line labeled route 34 based on the description. Look for the wide see-through crack at the top.

Located ~200 ft west / right of Tomato wall (before you reach tomato wall when coming from sunshine wall). 

Protection Suggest change

Standard rack to 5", recommend a 4 and a 5 for the finish
