Gray Squirrel

Fun chimney climbing that, at times, climbs like a slab within a chimney.

Climb the first two pitches of

Holy Grail

and look for the large, prominent chimney to your right. When exiting Holy Grail, there’s a short slab traverse to an alcove w/ a ledge, where you belay and start the climb.

To reach

Holy Grail:

1. Do the old scramble down the NW shoulder and get on the first pitch of The Link then traverse the huge ledge towards Zocalo (one rope).

2. Rap Offramp to Zocalo w/ two ropes on the 3rd rap.

Singles 0.3” to 2”

Doubles 3” to 5” or 6”

Set of nuts.

​

The bottom half of the climb protects well, the second half not so much.
