MapDescription
This is for the semi-obscure aficionados. This is a feature that sees little traffic. This scar in the landscape has yielded a few briefly pleasant, 65-degree-angle slab climbs. Approach via the Mesa trail from NCAR or Chataqua. There is a faint trail to its base, not too far from the Mesa Trail.
This is the leftmost of the routes with fixed protection here.
Follow small edges up the left side past 4 bolts (all 1/4"). The crux is between the 2nd and 3rd bolts. The runout is healthy above the 4th bolt. You can belay off trees above.
Protection
4 QDs, consider screamers, 2 slings for the anchor, 2 ropes useful if you TR this. Per
Kyle Lefkoff
, potentially, #7 BD & #6 BD stoppers may work between bolts 1 & 2, 2 & 3.
