MapDescription
Belay and start are same as for
Red Venus
. Belay on the slab. Climb up to the left to first bolt -which is high, but easy Class III. After first bolt, climb left to a high second bolt (also pretty easy with ledges). The crux is after the second bolt on a steep, thin slab. Use thin edges and mantles to get to and past 3rd bolt. Finish on good holds and easy ledges.
Location
It shares a start and anchors with
Red Venus
on the right side of the Whale.
Take the Whale Trail north from a big pine tree at the base of the slab. I recommend a 60m rope.
Protection
4 bolts to a 2 bolt anchor.
