Description

Once the farthest right line at the Riviera...now this is probably 4th or 5th route from the right. Identify a high bolt that works up and right over some blocky stuff, then up a slab with horizontal cracks, then finishes up a small headwall onto some choss at the top. High quality granite and nice, easy gear placements make this one safe and well bolted in my opinion.

Eds. Actually, there is another natural line to the left of this route...and now even bolted lines, too.

Protection

Five widely spaced bolts to a good anchor that could easily be reached for toproping. A few small cams and mid-size nuts will protect the runouts here. This is a good lead for the 5.7 or so leader who is just starting to place gear. Now there is a new, separate anchor with Mussy hooks.
