Description

Quality crack climbing with a spicy slot and a lovely belay perch at the finish.

Start on the ledges at the base of the cliff and climb cracks to gain the obvious slot about 60' up. Push through the slot - watch for crumbly rock here - to better cracks above. Climb further up and right under roofs (dirty, loose rock) or make a few moves to gain Excalibur above the cedar tree. Finish on the summit ledges climber's left of the Rickety Pinnacle.

Location

On the left side of the crack riddled face left of the Lost Arrow pinnacle, between the enticing arete Bigger than Jesus and the pillar of Excalibur. Look for the slot mentioned in the description

Protection

Standard rack. The bolt is worthless. 70m rope to rappel as per Excalibur. Watch those ends!
