Description

This is a fun route which likely is not often climbed. There is a fun, thin hand crack near the top. The crux comes after you move right from

Prism

and start upward. The pro here is not great, but small cams are available, and the moves are easier than they appear at first. The hand crack at the top is great. Clipping the anchors on

Ecstasy of the People

gives you a good feeling before the top.

Location

This goes just to the right of

Prism

, which you start on. Walk down by going north to a gully which goes down to the west.

Protection

Standard rack. Extra small cams are good to have. You can clip one of the anchor bolts on

Ecstasy of the People

at 70' up as pro. Build a gear anchor at the top.
