Description
P1. Climb face and thin cracks up to a roof with a nice hand-sized crack under it. Move right around the roof into a wide crack. Climb straight up a right facing corner, then belay on a sloping ledge (5.9-).
P2. Step out left, then climb slab following diagonal cracks up to a ramp that leads to the next belay ledge (5.9-).
P3. Follow a big flake (BD #3) up, then step out right, and continue up easier terrain to a ledge (5.8).
P4. Move left, then head up into a large gully that continues to the top (5.7).
Descent: from the top, hike east on the ridge to find the large, south side descent ramp (3rd Class).
Location
Look for the pair of left leaning cracks in the center of the south face of the Ship's Prow. Start up the dihedral that leads to the lower right side of these cracks. This route is between
Mentals at Altitude
and
Leaning Tower
.
Protection
A rack of nuts and a double cam rack to BD #3. A BD #4 is useful but not vital.
