Description
Scramble up the 4th class slab with your belayer to a belay ledge. There is a bolted anchor here for the belayer.
Pitch 1: 5.10a
Leave the left side of the ledge and enjoy a fun pitch with good holds where you want them. This is classic Big Rock. You have to love climbing here!
Pitch 2: 5.10b
From the anchor there are two options. The best one is to the right. Crimpy 5.10b face climbing will keep your attention - belay carefully here as it would be easy to fall onto the belay ledge.
A much easier option for the last pitch starts to the left of the belay anchor.
Location
On the right side of the wall, the route goes up the left side of the small ceiling on top.
Protection
Well bolted route with anchors equipped for rappel.
If linking pitches, consider taking the easier (left-hand) second pitch option. Your belayer will not be able to keep you off of the ledge if you fall on the cruxy 5.10b face climbing of the right option.
