Description
This is just a great route with an amazing position. The exposure is amazing for a 5.5 and the protection is great. There are tons of different places to start. If you start just above the darker rock it takes about 4 pitches. Follow the crack until the huge over hung top then exit to the left with good pro. Descend to the north going down a drainage to the north. A bit of fourth class down climbing required.
Location
It's the prominent corner on the north side off jumpoff canyon. Start whenever you feel you need to rope up. Rock quality gets better the higher you get.
From the Jump-Off Canyon trailhead at 425 N and Harrison Blvd (41.26730,-111.94769) follow the obvious trail past through the shrub oak and past some homes to the canal road. The trail continues from the canal road at the point where the canal goes underground. Make your way east to the mouth of Jump-Off canyon.
Here is a map of the complete approach, route and descent: caltopo.com/m/TB7Q.
Protection
Great gear. Need bigger peices but nothing bigger than 3.5 bd.
