Shockley's Without

Since this has always been listed as a bailout variation for The Ceiling, it doesn't receive much attention. That's unfortunate, because this is a full, clean pitch starting from the GT Ledge. A nice link-up for the 5.4 leader is the first two pitches of The Ceiling then finish on Shockley's Without.

At the GT ledge, walk 15-20 feet left of where you arrive from Shockley's second pitch. Belay at the tree or on gear. Climb up and slightly left, wherever you can find gear, about 50-60 ft to a ledge with a 6ft high left-facing corner. Climb the crack in the corner to the top (crux).

At the end of P2 of The Ceiling.

The pro is PG on the lower half, and G at the crux.
