Description

Scramble up 8’ to a bushy ledge where the route actually starts. Off the ledge the gear is thin, but the climbing isn’t heinous. After a few feet, you start hitting good gear. Follow the crack up to the right of the tree. Place some good gear in the discontinuous cracks. At this point, the crack has ended, and you’re face climbing. Clip two bolts as you tip toe up the delicate slab finish. Try to clip the anchors proudly, but if you’re like me, you’ll likely be grabbing them. The anchor is two bolts with chain and Mussy hooks.

Location

Golden Dragon is just after you drop down off the obvious hill just past

Rosie

and

Space Boy Elroy

. Look up through the scrub oak, and you’ll see a cool, little dihedral.

Protection

Stoppers and cams to a #3 Camalot.
