The Twilight Tower/Boner Jamz Extension
Description
This combination of old and new pitches adds up to one fabulous route. Twilight Tower/Boner Jams Extension is a powerful route that climbs mainly flawless granite up the Eagle’s Head Buttress in Mill Creek. Other than the wandering, slightly run-out first pitch, the rock is superb. Twilight Tower climbs through one of Mill Creek’s most aesthetic corners. The Boner Jams Extension then traverses right into a steep, featured corner system leading to the top. All anchors are bolted. Please leave quick links! Carry replacement webbing or cord.
Pitch 1-(5.7) Work up grey ramp and then traverse face on ledges, aiming up and left at a shallow corner. Climb up corner to anchors.
Pitch 2-(5.10) Climb up corner through the small roof on positive flakes. Continue up to anchors at the base of the Twilight Tower
Pitch 3-(5.10+) Climb the pristine, arching corner and pull the bulge. Follow the wide crack up and left to anchor on ledge.
Pitch 4-(5.7) Traverse ledge system out right to corner system and anchors.
Pitch 5-(5.10) Follow clean corner up to the start of the ET roof variation on the right at the top of the corner. Don't go right towards the bolt, finish up and left onto a block and the anchors.
Pitch 6-(5.11) Climb up shallow corner and pull through broken roofs. Continue up and right, exiting on the right face.
Location
The start of the first pitch can be found just beyond the mega arch, down and right of the obvious Twilight Tower. The first few anchors can be seen from the ground. Rappel the route with two 60m ropes. Do not reverse the pitch three traverse. Rap straight down over Extra-terror-estrial.
