Description

Climbs a face then up cracks to finish just to the left of Clothesline. Crux is the lower face. Originally rated 5.7, with bolted protection on the crux moves. Well, one is a bolt, the most important one. The other two are ancient pitons. Don't lean back on those! Good gear above.

Location

Starts on the right end of Broadway ledge, about forty feet left of Heathrow and twenty feet right of the anchors at the bottom of Fourth of July (top of Poison Ivy).

Descend via three rappels from bolted anchors or hike off either side.

Protection

Lower face is protected by an old piton, a bolt and another piece of old iron. Small cams or tricams and stoppers protect the upper cracks.
