Dave's Diagonal

Busse and Burr lists this as a 5.6 mixed route, but the way we went today makes this a purely sport route. Since the gear options seemed marginal, I am guessing that the path described here is going to be the more common way to climb this. Step off the boulder or ascend the somewhat lichenish slab- climber's choice. Work your way up to the quite high 1st bolt of Thanks Brent. Extend that bolt or bolt two of Thanks Brent and work left. Clip two more bolts on A Lady, a Gentleman, and BK's bolt line as you head for that route's anchors.

Sledgehammer NW face. Shares a start with Thanks Brent and shares an anchor with A Lady, a Gentleman, and BK.

3 or 4 bolts. BB lists trad pro- Purple C3-#0.4, nuts, micro-nuts
