Description

The hardest moves are near the lower bolts, however, the upper face is almost equally challenging. You do not have to touch the loose block at the start - and probably shouldn't. Climb up onto the top of the flake, move up (bolt)and right below a bulge, passing the bulge to the right (bolt) to gain a ledge. Traverse right to a vertical crack and follow it to an overhang. Climb through the overhang at a thin seam, trend up and left (two bolts), reaching the right end of a small ledge below a final 15' slab. Climb directly up the slab to the belay ledge. While not as thrilling as Long Play, this route provides an enjoyable alternative/additional line up the wall.

Location

Start: On the left side of the main face, 12' left of a wide, open book/corner, at a right-facing flake below and left of a large, loose block pasted to the wall. Unlike Induhvidual, one does not clamber up the gully to get to this route.

Descent: Rappel via 70m rope or two rappels, using fixed anchors to either side of the Long Play Wall.

Protection

Full standard rack, including C3s or similar. There are 4 bolts en route, two in the first 30' and two along the face climbing above the overhang. Tree anchors are at the top.
