Little Dripper

FA Vernon Phinney, Bob Archbold 1987
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

Climb an easy right slanting crack (alternate start for Weird Water) past 1 bolt, then go straight up a thin vertical crack (small cam or nut) for ten feet to a crux bulge protected by a well-placed bolt. Climb over the bulge and follow another right angling crack for another ten feet, then follow 3 or 4 more well placed bolts to the chain anchors at the top.

Location

30 feet left of Weird Water. The Little Dripper right-slanting bolted crack start is often used as an alternate start for Weird Water.

Protection

5 or 6 bolts, a few small cams for the cracks, and chain anchors at the top. Descent: Rappel 125 ft on one 70M rope -- probably requires two ropes if using 60M or shorter rope.
