Grand Illusion

In Swartling's guide the route is shown as starting of ledge DD at Prospect Point Rampart. This is true but a better and more fun option is to climb the route from the ground via the 5.10b variation start that is a goody in itself (although can be wet and gooey right at the base). The upper Grand Illusion part of the route proper is a gem too. Very nice crack up into a overhanging crack/groove. Well protected and classic stiff 5.9. The crux here is pulling through the overhanging crack via locks and a throw to sharp jugs (all after hang'n out below it and placing gear). If you fall - no problem- it is pure air.

Approximately at left end of Prospect Point Rampart wall proper. Variation start from base is right of Big Toe formation.

All bomber natural chocks (big wires), tricams, and cams.
