Description

"On the left side of the small valley between the two towers is a set of complex flakes. Try to work out a smooth sequence. The finishing crux is reachy."

FO and SJ - Fairbanks Area Climbing Guide

Looking up to the first, second, and thirst bolt; the wall comes out just a little bit. The first bolt is surround by hollow layers of rock. Safety seems of a concern due to location, but the start is very jug. -Joshua Hager & Megan Bennett 

Location

A bolted line just right of Staircase up in the alcove between Left Tower and Right Tower (Twin Towers) As you scrabble up the alcove and you come up to a slab, to the left is a crack in the corner, just left of the crack is Tall Ginger and Ginger Cake. They both share the first three bolts, with Ginger Cake veering off to the left of the third bolt following the crack to what looks like a spine from down below. The rock is very jagged and seems like a weathered granite along with an orange colored moss, hence the name "Ginger"

Ginger Cake 5.8 (3bolts + anchor) Tall Ginger 5.10b (4bolts + anchor)

Protection

3 bolts to bolted chain anchors. If there are carabiners on the chains, leave them! They are part of the fixed protection.
