Description

P-1 5.8 95' Start in a 40' crack with some bushes down low and veer right at its end. Keep traversing right on a block filled ledge for 8' and continue up the crack to the anchor/rap. Gear

P-2 5.10A 95' Continue up the crack to a small headwall with a bolt. Gently pull past a large block (seems solid enough) and continue with thin cracks to another bolt. The anchor is just above on a 3' headwall. Gear, 2 bolts

P-3 5.11A 95' The crux is pulling over this ledge but the pitch remains sustained. Continue face climbing past several bolts angling left to the diagonal crack. Use this to step onto a knob to clip the next bolt. Ahead is a ledge, traverse 8' left around the arete to a thin crack. One more bolt gets you to a small ledge and the anchor/rap. Gear, 7 bolts

P-4 5.9 Up the small dihedral to the summit block, clip a bolt and grab the top. Clip the anchor and lower, very small stance. 2#2 & 2#3, one bolt. Rap the route.

Location

Climbs the 2nd pillar to the right of Indian Buttress. Start in a 40' hand crack.

Protection

single rack to 3", extra 2&3, wires, bolts
