Description

A pretty good climb and reasonably protected, but not entry-level at its grade. The route is mostly easier, but is a little technical and devious through the crux bulge.

This climb starts up as for 'Solo Mission' and follows that climb for perhaps 2/3 of its length before solo mission exits left onto a slab heading for a low angle corner. At that time, continue up some moderate but poorly protected rack in a shallow and rounded left-facing corner. A bolt will come into reach up and left (clip it) and then soon another as you reach the top of the corner, in a small roof. Clip the second bolt and do the crux to get established above the roof. The finish is moderate.

Location

The climb starts as for 'Solo Mission' and deviates from it only in the last 40 to 50 feet.

Protection

A standard rack for the 'Solo Mission' start, but with a few bolts for the independent climbing.
