Description
From the end of the road below Batline Dome, walk down the trail into the canyon as though you were going to the Owl Rock or Zappa area. When you reach the bottom of the drainage, go about 50 feet up-canyon. On the left side of the drainage (basically across from the trail that leads up out of the canyon to the Owl Rock) is a faint path that leads about 100 feet up to the shady, back side of Batline Dome. The faint path hits the cliff at a corner (the line of Caped Crusader). This route starts about 25 feet to the left (toward the road) from the corner at a black waterstreak in a right-facing corner.Climb the black waterstreak and right-facing corner to a tree. You could continue up through some brush to connect with Batty, making this an easy but not very esthetic two pitch route.
