Happy Ending (formerly Top-Rope)

Description

This line was originally published as a top-rope problem on the left side of The Never Ever Slab. It apparently needed a lot more cleaning. Now it hosts 5 bolts and delicate climbing. The first crux comes after the 1st bolt and seems to trend right. It seemed reachy, but even 5'1" climbers figured it out. There is a section below the 5th bolt that has a friable edge (part of which broke), so tread lightly. The second crux, near the 5th bolt, seems to pull you slightly left. Again, this seemed reachy, but a 5'1" climber pushed through.

The anchor bolts are far enough below the tree above that a short rappel or belay would be advised for a top rope. Alternatively, the tree has been used for an anchor in the past.

Location

This lies on the left side of

The Never Ever Slab

. It is down and left of

Dreamtime

and left of the Solar Wall.

Protection

5 bolts, 2 bolt anchor (one with a rap ring and the other with 2 links).

Per

Ken Pischke

: the 1st bolt is now missing its hanger.
