Description

This route has some really fun movement on a fairly steep face, for Lumpy. However, the rock quality is not so good...crumbly feet and flexi-flakes. The bolts/pin leave something to be desired...they are mostly rusted.

Walk off down either side of the formation.

Location

Go around to the right from

Checkerboard Crack

and the large pillar. Look for the wide flake that is the first pitch of Tim's Troubles. Either climb the first pitch of TT or scramble up around to Surrey Ledge. This is the line of bolts on the right. The left line is Checkmate (.11b).

Protection

Mostly old bolts (7?) and one old pin, a couple places to put smaller Aliens behind flakes, #0.75-#2 for anchor.
