Description

This route starts 10 feet left of Knot Head in the Dune alcove. It is the third bolted line left of Dune, and doesn't appear in the Van Horn or Knapp guidebooks.

Climb the steep dark face to the anchors. Staying to the right of the bolts is easier, but following the bolt line more directly is also possible.

Sustained and interesting climbing; an excellent warm-up route.

Per

Nate Oakes

: this is pretty sustained - I didn't feel like there was a definite crux anywhere on this route. There are plenty of crimper ledges all the way up, as well as good feet. Watch for a little rubble on the ledges starting about halfway up. There is a great view at the top!

Eds. this is a combination of submissions that were for the same route. The newer submission's content was moved to this page.

Location

Per

Nate Oakes

: once you hit the crag, go uphill (to the right) past 15 or so routes. This one is 2 to the left of

Phase Dance

, a 12a with two roofs that lies almost in the corner of a prominent alcove.

Protection

9 bolts to a 2-bolt anchor.
