Neck Route

FA unknown
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

This route climbs the prominent right facing dihedral at the east end of the Camel's head. Climb low angle rock past a few old bolts. The crux comes after the bolts; pull a bulge on loose rock. The guidebook lists the route as two pitches, but that will create the challenge of building a belay--there aren't many opportunities to place solid gear, and the bolts are rather suspect. The route is a nice scramble to the head summit.

From the top of the route, continue up 2nd/3rd class to the summit. Descend Pedrick's Chimney. It is out of the way to return for gear at the base of the route.

Protection

Maybe a couple cams and nuts, probably finger-hand sizes. A couple rusty drop in bolts with Leeper hangers.
