Description Suggest change

The Third Millennium follows 13 bolts through less-than-vertical, featured face climbing, awkward crack climbing, a steep, pebble pinching slab, and steep jug hauling in an amazing location. After bolt 5, you gain a crack that has gear options so good they couldn’t be skipped. We placed a #3 at the beginning and a #0.75 at the end of the crack. Lots of other sized choices are also available. Use longer draws in a couple spots and a shoulder length on bolt 9 for a smoother experience. The anchor is out of sight and slightly right above bolt 13.  Use a 70m rope, and knot the end - it’s a rope stretcher. It’s possible to traverse right and up onto the East Face of you wish to finish that way or just lower.

Location Suggest change

This route starts just above the ferns on the South-facing side of the 1911 Gully. It’s the furthest left of the existing routes. The 3 old routes have been rebolted, so a visit just might justify the involved approach. You can scramble up the East Face Left to reach the gully. Or you could climb Queen  Ann’s Head and rap into the gully.

To get down, you can do two rappels from trees (with poison ivy) at the bottom of the gully, or continue to the top of the Third Flatiron for the standard descent.

Protection Suggest change

13 bolts, a #3 and a #0.75 Camalot, and an anchor with hooks.
