Description

Lots of thoughtful moves.

Up vague sub-ridge directly up from the standing dead tree. Finish to Mid-Level Ledge about 5 ft left of two-bolt anchor or 15 ft left of the shady bush.

warning

: The rock on and near this route has not been climbed much yet, and some of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber.

FA first ascent? The listing of a Top-Rope first ascent does not imply that top-roping is the "appropriate" style for this route. If some party bolts this route and leads it and supplies a careful description of the size and metal-composition of the bolts and hangers - (by posting an Improve This Page or a Comment below) -- they wlll be given first-rank FA on this page. Also they can supply their own name for this climb (which is why currently this route has a "generic" name, awaiting installation of hardware).

Location

Directly up from the standing dead tree, at foot of vague ridge.

Protection

Two-bolts-connected-by climbing-rope top anchor just above mid-level ledge about 10 feet left from the Shade Bush. With two carabiners attached.

. . . Details about this anchor, see the route "Center Low Face".

No intermediate bolts for leading as of 2018.

Protection for Trad leading is unknown and likely inadequate.

Top-Roping: Could use the 2-bolt top anchor at mid-level ledge as anchor. Or could use one of the anchors along the top of Moynier sector, with belayer on mid-level ledge (but this could result in a long fall due to rope stretch).

For ideas about how to get access to set up top anchor, see Description page for Moynier sector.
