Yonah Traverse

This is choose your own adventure for sure, below is the way we went. The climbing can be as low as 5.4 or up to 5.7.

Pitch 1: Start at the far left "Two-man party" route and finish on the first pitch anchor of the furthest right "Two-man party" route. (5.4 100ft)

Pitch 2: Down climb ~30ft then resume traverse through the lichen fields. Pass an old bolt and pins, finish on large ledge with bolts. (5.5 130ft)

Pitch 3: Follow anchor bolts along easy terrain, pass the cable and finish on a small ledge atop a short buttress. The anchor is the farthest right route of the "balance climbs". (5.easy 200ft)

Pitch 4: Start by heading a little up through the charred vale to uneven terrain, the climbing is low 5th to 4th class here. Aim for a large bush on a ledge, belay from a hanging stance 10ft below the ledge, or stretch the rope/simul ~40ft past the bush to anchors with a better stance. (5.5 210-240ft)

Pitch 5: Cross over the ridge and move over to the top of the cliff. Belay from a tree or build a gear anchor in the large horizontal crack lower down. (5.5 120-170ft) (Direct finish) Climb up and over the second overhang above you.

Who knows if this has been done before, either way it's a fun climb for a less crowded day. If you know anything about it or if you do it let us know, we'd love to hear about it.

Normal approach to the Main Face. Descent: Walk off from the top anywhere to main trail. 

Bolted Anchors, Standard single rack, doubles in smaller gear (finger size), Tricams. We used a 70m rope, with a 60m gear anchors may be needed.
