Student Pilot

Easy climbing and in the shade most of the day.  The crux is finding the line though it is only 20 min.s from car to crack.

Best way in is from the Shangri La campsite trail (see approach trail map).  Follow this SW to the edge.  Here note the cairn atop the TSA Tower and the three cracks below on the towers east face.  Now turn right or north a few hundred feet to a cairned and easy down chute to the stable talus below.  There is a fixed line to aid your decent and guide the way.   Head south along the wall to the gap between the wall and TSA Tower where the three cracks are obvious.  Student Pilot is the farthest left.  OR, with extreme caution and a belay, jump from the trail edge to the tower and use the anchor atop to rap to the lines base.

A mix of singles from BD .5 - #2s, two #3s, and one #4. Also some runners. You can easily top out and find the chain anchor dead center of the tower. A 50 m rope is fine.
