Description

Three pitch sport climb Which feels more like a trad climb. (whatever, does that even mean?)Straight up the guts of the cliff, following the quartz vein for two pitches. Great belays!The third pitch being the crux in an open corner with granite trickery (good luck shorties). Sling long at the top of the corner (sixth bolt) before ledge traversing left fifteen feet. Climb the exposed prow to the highest point of the cliff. My suggestion is the leader clips the chains and gets lowered down past the belayer to the rappel station below. MUST have a 70 meter rope!On the second rappel to the ground, stay to the right over the slabs.Which means pushing off before losing contact with the rock midway through the lower off.
