Description

This is the longest route at Upper Oz. It climbs up the left side of the fin and then moves around to the right at the top. The anchors are set back a bit, so you can't really see your partner if you belay up top (am I the only one who does that? Actually, I lowered, and it worked out ok). Big holds, lots of bolts, and good exposure equals fun. There's a few friable edges at this time, but they will clean up with a little more traffic.

Location

This is on Upper Oz.

This is currently the right-most route and climbs an obvious tall feature near the middle of this entire ledge. It starts in broken reddish-brown layers, moves up onto a grey slab, goes over right onto the side of the fin, and finally joins the main arete near the top.

Rap off.

Protection

10 bolts plus anchors.
