The obscure tour continues. Are you bored? Are you looking for another route to touch virgin-to-you rock in this crag paradise? "This route climbs the bulge and crack just to the right of P1 of

Neon Lights

" according to Rossiter's guide. Find this, um, er, ah, well, different pitch of rock high on the west side of the Bastille between

Neon Lights

' and

Voodoo's

first pitches.

I doubt this one sees Bastille-like action or even pitch one of

Neon Lights

traffic. This has scaly rock, a tough start, a high step, and a layback, for an appetizer. It gives you loads of respect for those who went before you. Then angle right towards an inviting roof.

Or, maybe Jim was smarter and didn't go this way. Continue on above with less-challenging terrain to the walk-off ledge, and don't knock any of those stacked blocks over near the top, please.

A TR might be less bold but possibly wiser.

It is probably best to TR, or bring a standard Eldo rack.
