Ninja Ladder

Left of the prominent trad crack is a bolted route that runs up to chain anchors. The start is sharp and a bit runout to the first clip (traverse right). This is followed by beautiful and strenuous climbing that fires up an offset, right-facing corner for 25 feet. This is followed by another 25 or so feet of face climbing on largely very good stone. The offset corner felt very powerful, and very finger intensive. This route reminded me of climbing at Security Risk in Boulder Canyon: hard, a bit runout but certainly not dangerous, and on excellent granite. This is great find for whomever put it up and one of the best single pitches in the BTC.

Hike 2 minutes up from the parking. The routes are easily seen from the parking.

8-10 draws, something for the anchor, and a rope.
