Description

A good pitch with good rock and good protection, but a little short if done alone. Combined with one of the dihedral pitches on Tier Two as a single pitch, this can be a 3-star climb.

Start this climb from

Antifreeze

,

Emission Testing

,

The Tooth

, or do it on its own. For the former, rap to the bolted slab anchor and then down to the starting ledge/bolt belays of those routes, or for the latter, rap down and hard to the right from the standard rap station and stop on a blocky ledge below the obvious corner.

Climb up and back to the same anchor or belay on large boulders with a cordalette.

Location

This route is the right-most route on Tier Three, ascending an obvious right-facing corner through an overlap (crux) and to the 'starting ledge' arrived at upon the backside approach to Mechanical Man.

Protection

This pitch is fingers to hands for protection and can for the most part be had overhead. As the dihedral has overlaps and jogs, take a few longer runners to eliminate rope drag.
