Description

Some nice moves.  The overlap can be protected, but then there's still some 5.6-5.7 R-ish to the first bolt.START- A few feet left of "Cody's Lament" and about 10-15 ft right of "Hattie's Garden", almost directly above the 3ft x 3ft flat boulder on the ground, and 20-25ft below a 6" overlap with a bolt below it.P1 - Climb the thin face below the overlap, clip the bolt and continue up passing a 2nd bolt beneath a smaller overlap and a 3rd bolt (where "Cody's Lament" joins) by a slab. Continue to the trees and rap with two ropes. 180-200 ft 5.8+ PG-13/R. See comment about trees and lose rock at the top.

Protection

At the suggestion of "Madeline" rack is: "3 draws and...."RHall's comment that: You

can get a wire "Stopper" in (or possibly a small cam) near the lower crux by the photo of the climber ("RW...") but above that, yes it's run out except for the bolts. Hence the name.
