Buckets

This "F3" east face route is about 300 feet long and follows the obvious water groove. The water groove ends in a gash in the summit. The best climbing is found on the face to the left or the right of the water groove due to a healthy crop of moss in the groove. If climbed with a rope, the only protection is in the buckets that give this route its name. (tricams...) This route is a great scrambling finish to the Royal Arch trail when combined with the Anomaly flatiron. Descent: Walk off to the south.

Light SR, including extra tricams.
