Conn's West Corner Start

FA unknown
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

A rather overlooked option to an old classic. It's also a good way to slip past the masses on Conn's West/Old Man's.

Instead of going up the big flake pitch of Conn's West, move right on Old Man's to the next corner/dihedral. Climb the corner, passing two trees (stay left when you pass the trees). You'll top out the corner near the big tree that's just right of the Conn's West bolted rap station. Crux is towards the top.

Location

Up past the Conn's West flake pitch and just before the Old Man's Traverse ledge, locate the large, left-facing dihedral. If you're on the Old Man's Traverse ledge looking at a big corner, you've gone too far and are likely looking at P3 of Prune.

Protection

Takes passive gear well, but nothing special needed.
