TR
Description
TR is THE line if you are looking for steep crack climbing littered with rest jugs, great gear, and a stunning position.
The route name is by no means an indicator as to how the first ascentionist would like to see every subsequent ascent. On the contrary, this route protects extremely well, and the initials are simply the initials of the person responsible for finding this stunning line--Tom Rosecrans.
The route begins in a cave-like feature about 60 or 70 feet right of the dominant right-facing corner of the cliff, and boulders up, and then out of the cave to welcomed jugs.
Continue up the impeccable crack until it forks. Take both cracks up until it reaches a few thin crux moves below a flat ledge at about 55 or 60 feet. Above, a few more feet of moderate, but pumpy crack climbing guard the climbs' end at a sloping, vegetated ledge. Traverse left about 8 feet, up onto a block where bolted rap-ring anchors are gained.
Location
60 or 70 feet right of major right-facing corner of the cliff.
Protection
Standard rack. Bolts and rap-rings for the anchor.
