Description
It appears the three (3) 35-yr-old 1/4" bolts have been replaced with 3/8-inch Stainless. Not to say this isn't a "bit run out" (since the originals were hand-drilled on the lead from "stances") but at least what pro there is seems solid. With a directional or two it can be Top Roped using 2 ropes from the "Reelin'" Dbl Bolt anchor.Pretty sustained climbing on excellent rock.START: About 20 ft left of "Tao of Dow" on a slab with an arching overlap above. Up the slab and over the overlap, then up diagonally left 20-30 ft (coming within 10 ft or so of "Reelin' ") to a small stance (bolt) then straight up to a steeper swell (bolt), climb over and up the steep slab above (crux?) finally diagonalling left to the dbl bolt (3/8") anchor of "Reelin'".
Location
Start from the tree ledge 30-40 ft up the cliff. The START is below, and about 20 ft left of the tree growing 20ft up the cliff on the route "Tao of Dow.
Protection
3 bolts and small gear
