Sweet Cigarillo

FA D. Mabe and A. Dembik, June 2010
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

Sweet Cigarillo is a fun, classy, and moderate 2 pitch outing up the center of the Upper Smoking Section Formation.

P1. 5.8, 115'

. Wander up the slab on friction climbing past some interesting features. Use some shoulder length slings on the bolts in the middle of the pitch to alleviate some of the drag. Pull on to a ledge with 2 bolt belay, 11 bolts.

P2. 5.6, 115'

. EDIT 2018: the original FA traversed the roof with gear, but now the pitch climbs above the belay and up to the roof with only bolts. Mantel the roof, and romp up easy slabs past a few more bolts to 2 bolt belay on a ledge, 8 bolts.

Have a picnic at a grassy bench at the top.

Do two raps down with one 70m rope. Watch your ends!

Location

Start by a tree in the center of the formation. Scramble onto a flat perch from the left, just above the

Pipsqueak

slab.

Protection

About a dozen draws, including a couple long ones.

You can use one 70m rope!
