Flying High Again

The positioning of this is the highlight, perched way above the road with amazing views up canyon and towards the valley. The climbing is not great, with the dihedral being less sustained than it looks from below and with crappier quartzite than most of us are use to in BCC. Good adventure if you're like me and have been looking up at this while driving down canyon and wondering...

Follow the old aqueduct east a few hundred feet past where you would pick up the bottom of the ridge for the margin of air wall. There is an obvious low angle ridge that you follow up through scrub oak and low angle quartzite slabs. Ditch pack and gear up directly below the last facing dihedral. Climb 100 feet or so of easy 5th class terrain until you can setup a belay at the base of the corner where there are 2 pitons. Walk off and down to the west. There are chains on the summit for the west facing wall, not sure where they get you down to.

Doubles .5-3 camalots, a few extra small/micro cams for dihedral, runners and a few quick draws if you want to clip the old pins on the route
