Description

A beatiful line, past an intimidating roof, onto a face that is harder than any of the routes on the SW face. The roof is not as hard as it looks, and pulling the lip is exciting. The face above will offer the most resistance, especially for the shorter folks. Finally after the face, a leftward trending traverse below the big roof will get you to the anchors.

Location

Right of Aquaduck, through the obvious and deep roof, on the SW face.

Protection

1 bolt on the route with a fixed nut as backup. The bolt is bad. The roof can be protected well, but you may lose your handholds if you sew it up. The face above has sparser protection but should be ok. Small to medium gear for most of the route, maybe a few larger nuts or cams for the travese.
