MapDescription
On the SE side of the dome, climb the narrow buttress to the right of the broad gulley between the Temple of Ishtar and the Tower of Babel. From the base of buttress climb up 20 ft. and right of the huge cobble. Continue up the buttress on fiction, pockets, and cobbles to anchors on the lower SW shoulder of the summit.
Location
Climbs the narrow buttress, right of the gulley, on the southeastern aspect of the Tower of Babel.
Protection
5 bolts and chain anchor.
The easiest descent is to rappel (Orang-O-Tang) into the notch, to the left of "Rainy Day Woman," and scramble down the gulley to the base. Those claiming you need a 60 meter rope have obviously missed this shorter option.
