Description

This is a quality line that has for some unknown reason seen little traffic in recent years. It was completely overtaken with lichen until yesterday... but we cleaned it quite a bit but it still needs more.

It's just as good as it's neighbor ~ 50' right, Waste A Bit but climbs a system of short discontinuous cracks up a face and through two small roofs on all bomber gear. A recommended route for the 5.10 leader in this area.

P-1

Climb the face up to and around the right side of some brush to the first 10- crux roof sequence (crack through small roof). From above, move right along a horizontal handcrack/rail to the face/corner and up to a second bulge/roof. Pull this on a bomber blue tcu in roof to gain a ledge with a gear belay. Currently there are 2 fixed stoppers.

P-2

I personally have not done this one yet but it climbs the lefthand weakness through the bulge at ~ 5.9 (not the steeper feature directly above the belay) to easier terrain and the top. All gear.

Location

Right of "A Friend in Need" (not listed here), and left of "Alternate Reality".

Protection

standard rack. Could use up to a # 4 camalot but not necessary
