Description Suggest change

This route is on the far left side of the upper tier of climbs. It is just to the right of the gully. Start by climbing an easy face beyond a series of horizontal cracks to a large flake not obvious from the ground. Traverse right a few feet to a off width left slanting crack. When the crack runs out, move right across the face on small foot holds until you reach the final dihedral for the final 15 feet to the top. There is one big tree about 10 feet back that can be used as an anchor. It's probably best to not use the small tree near the edge.

Location Suggest change

The climb starts at 37.875468, -119.345802. This is on the upper tier of Puppy Dome. There is a prominent gully on the west side of the dome. It's on the northern portion. Climb up the face below two horizontal cracks about 20 feet above the ground. To descend, either walk off the backside or use the bolts 50 feet to climbers right.

Protection Suggest change

Black Diamond 0.3 to 2. The climb is generally well protected. There are no bolts present or needed. Use the 6 inch diameter tree 10 feet back from the top for an anchor. Either walk off directly over the back or use the bolts 50 feet climbers right to descend.
