Pumpin' for the Man

P1 (5.9, 60'): Exciting moves off the deck give way to a corner crack that terminates at a small chockstone roof. Pull past the chockstone and exit the corner system to the left. Belay from a thin ledge below a high, two bolt anchor with rap hangers. It appears the original belay ledge has fallen, which would explain the high anchor.P2 (5.8, 50'): From the P1 anchor, traverse right across the corner above the chockstone and around a small roof, and head up another corner. A small ledge with a hand to fist-sized crack between the main wall and a detached column will be to your left; you're halfway done with this pitch. Make your way up this crack and belay from the top of the detached column at bolted anchors with chains. A hanging column will be to your right.P3 (5.9, 90'): From the P2 anchor, a short, exposed traverse will get you established in the crack between the main wall and the hanging column. This pitch follows the corner crack that is two cracks over from the P2 anchor to the top of the cliff. The guidebook does not make this clear in the drawing. A mix of techniques is used, including intermittent jamming, stemming, laybacking, and face holds. Just before the top of the cliff you will find a comfortable ledge and a two bolt anchor with one chain and one quick link on the right of the crack to belay and rappel from. While the crack is often wider than a fist, and the climbing is somewhat sustained, no offwidth technique is required.Descent: Two rappels to the ground with a 70m rope using P3 and P2 anchors.

Continue climber's left past the third landing to a small, flat area.
