Per T Dz: I talked to the owner of the saloon who knows the property owner. Apparently, his deceased wife is buried at the base of Sphinx. Best to let her rest if so.
Description
This route follows the right edge of the slab that cuts the Sphinx in half. On the appoach, you'll see the obvious slab facing you. Walk up the ramp as far as you want or until you find a level place to stach your gear, then head up and right on the friction slab. The first two bolts are of rather poor quality. This climb can be done in one or two pitches (a 60m rope is nice).
