MapThe Strainer
Description
Sit start with a left hand slopey side-pull and a right hand crimp/pinch on the arête. There are several different sequences, all requiring some sloper-power, especially the top. Heel hook and power slap your way up. High quality rock and sloper-action. Watch out for the sharp bit on the sloper rail overhead.
Location
Start on the trail nearest the campground entrance. Near the top, instead of trending left as towards Yosemite Highball, go straight up and to the right. The boulder is fairly obvious and has only one line on it, facing up the canyon. You'll see a prominent bulge-like feature.
