Description
Just to the right of Originator Crack is a steep, V shaped stem corner, capped by a perched boulder cave. This is Bilge, curiously the second route on the island with this name.
Start by stemming the corner to a stance beneath a dubious looking flake. Some better gear underneath it protects burly laybacking moves up to a stance. Stem and chimney into the V corner to a perplexing stance, where everything seems to face the wrong direction. See it through and you’ll be rewarded with… an even more perplexing stance! Gain the top out jug with relief and mantle through the boulder hole, to a sandy little nook. Belay from a gear anchor in the finger sized range.
To descend, scramble off to the left to the top of Originator Crack, then walk down to the base.
