Description
This is a very good and nicely exposed alternate finish to
Lost in Space
, ascending the left margin of the left-facing, left-leaning dihedral which is obvious when you are at the third belay of
Lost in Space
(right after the 5.4 corner). From this belay, move left 15 feet past an ancient buttonhead to an incipient crack in the slab above. Mantle through the crux to a nice hand jam under the dihedral/roof, move left around the corner and then lieback and face climb all the way to the exit slabs. Alternately, you can take a 5.8 crack to exit from the dihedral about 2/3 of the way up. This is a long pitch.
Protection
To get to this route, you need to climb the first 3 pitches of
Lost in Space
. The rack for
Lost in Space
will suffice, although you should make sure you bring some small wires.
