Description
Next Rock over from Pieces of Eight. Starts in the middle of the face following the bolts up and right and then back up and left.
This route starts steep and stays fairly sustained but the stances are good for clipping the bolts. It is a full grade harder than Pieces of Eight but just as fun.
Follow the first 3 bolts up and slightly right. There may be a fourth bolt higher up right but I usually move up and left to the next bolt. You can move up and left to the tree and sling it and I think you can get some pieces in the horizontal crack. The last bolt is up and left, then climb to the top and belay.
Anchors have been added to the top but in the past we have gone down the gully to the south slightly towards the lake and around to the anchors on Pieces of Eight.
You can TR this by leading the much easier Better Than Beer and Pretzels and walking over to these anchors.
Protection
5-6 bolts, some tcu's or cams can be placed and a small tree can be slung.
