Traverse of No Return

FA Bob Gaines and Jeff Batten, January 1985.

UPDATED 

Description

This funky route begins about 20 feet left of Bongledesch and about 30 feet right of Drawstring.

Start at a bulging overhang with a bolt. A strenuous (5.11-) mantle surmounts the bulge. Then move straight up to a crack (2 to 3-inch pro here). Move left to another bolt, then traverse further left (5.11-) on steeper, thin slab moves until you can move back up and right into a scoop. Climb past a horizontal crack (no pro) then runout (5.8 R) slab climbing takes you up to the big ledge (called Large Ledge) at the top of Mike's Books first pitch.

Protection

To 3 inches.
