Description
This climb makes a nice way to bypass the Stairmaster and gain Luncheon Ledge - the ledge system where
Triple S
and most of the West Face routes are located.
P1: Traverse right on the ledge, then up a crack and ledge system to a spacious ledge with a few trees and rappel rings over
The Burn
(80ft).
P2: Climb the right facing corner system up and around a cave-like feature and V-slot to another spacious ledge with a tree. Belay here (80ft).
Location
Begin about 30 feet to the left of
The Burn
. Climb a short vegetated ramp to a smallish ledge with a sizable tree (10ft). Begin the climb here to avoid ropedrag. Descend by walking through a slot and head north to Luncheon Ledge and Triple S. You could also rappel from the tree (80ft), then from the anchors over The Burn (100+ feet, 60M rope with stretch required!!). Do the walkoff, it's safer.
