Description

This looks amazing and hard. Thin finger splitter. I didn't climb this route and Sevve didn't mention a grade in his AAJ description, but it looked to me at least hard 5.11 and probably 5.12. It shares the anchor and is on the other side of the boulder as the hand crack, so you could top rope it. If I remember correctly it's a single bolt anchor so might want to bring up the drill.

Location

Go about 1 hour (approximately 3 miles) down from Glen Aulin High Sierra Camp. Locate the amazing steep golden wall that houses "The Fortress" route and bushwack up the gully on the right side of it. Maybe about 30-40 minutes or 1/3 of the way up the gully.
