Description

Route Description:

This is a right facing dihedral with an obvious roof about 25 feet up, left of Old Bushmills and right of Lite Not Solid. Scramble up the large boulder close to the start of Bushmills and belay from the block at the base of the climb (single belay bolt).

Climb ~25ft of good hands to a roof. Traverse to the lip, pull past, and enjoy tight hands and off fingers for ~60ft. Above, the dihedral throws a tightening bulge for about ten feet (crux). Once past the bulge, keep it together for the varied climbing to the anchors.

One of the best and cleanest routes in Pine Canyon.

Doable with a single 70 meter rope ONLY if belaying from high up on pillar/boulder.

Protection

Numerous pieces in the tight hands rattly fingers range. Handful of hands and a few down to a blue tcu and a few up to a 3.5 camalot. Two bolt anchor.
