Details
Please do not litter and observe all regulations. We had to fight to regain access at one time, and we don't want to lose the privilege again. Local ethics and refuge regulations are that no bolting is permitted unless expressly authorized by the park. Leave the hammer and nails at home, no fixed gear please. Everything will go clean.
Description
This is an alternative pitch-2 of Arrowsmith. Here's the name sake:
"Arrowsmith" looks like a question mark '?'. Its P1 straight and its P2 curled. "The Y" is an alternative P1 of "Arrowsmith". Together they form an upside-down lowercase 'y': Lowercase because their P2 is curled. "Capital Y" as an alternative P2 is straight up: Thus making an upside-down capital 'Y'. You'll need to look at the topo to make sense of the name. To get there, climb P1 of Arrowsmith or The Y. Belay. Then instead of the traditional P2 where you start by traverse right. You'd climb straight up and slightly to the left along a crack system 25ft to a triangular cove roomy enough to lie down. From the cove, you continue 35ft straight up and slightly to the left along the cracks -- this time you'll see two cracks leading to the top and they are about 5ft apart. Follow either crack. Once on the top and on the flat ground, walk back 15ft to wrap your rope around any big boulders -- that's your top anchor. Belay.
