Description

Pluggin pieces with a background of crashing waves, what could be better?

The crux is probably in the first 10-15 feet, weather you traverse out left and back or just make the reach straight up for it.

A guidebook once told me this was about 5.7, but I did some 5.6's the following day at the South Wall which were significantly more challenging. pshhttt, grades...

Location

From above: There's a vegetated gully at the ~7' vertical face between the higher and lower rocky plateaus atop the left wall area. A top rope anchor can be established with some nuts at this point.

From below: Facing the left wall, this climb climbs the obvious gully which starts just to the right of the huge roof.

Facing the ocean from the top, there's a trail to the right that goes around and then loops down the the base. Facing the cliff from below, that same trail to the left of the cliff now leads up and around back to the top.

Protection

One bolt ~15' up. Standard rack? Pretty sure I placed up to a BD C4 #3 and a DMM #2 wallnut, so anything goes.
