Description

This route is the first route you come to in the "staging area" and is distinguishable as the route leads up to and over a small ledge with a pine tree growing on it.

Pitch 1 (5.7) Climb up the easy slab to the bottom of the ledge past 3 bolts, a 4th bolt protects the crux of getting onto the ledge. Belay after gaining the ledge at a 2 bolt anchor (120 ft)

Pitch 2 (5.7) Climb straight up 2 watergrooves from the pitch 1 belay past 2 bolts to a 2-bolt anchor (40 ft)

Pitch 3 (5.4) Easy climbing but the top was extremely wet and covered in lichen when I climbed it and I was unable to find the rap anchors and ended up downclimbing and rapping from the pitch 2 anchors. Would not recommend climbing this pitch.

Descent: Rap the route, 2 rope rap with will get you down from pitch 2 anchors

Note: Route stays very wet even several days after a rain

Protection

Route is well bolted except 3rd pitch, quickdraws should be all you need
