Description

Approach this climb and belay as described for Forbidden Planet, which is just to its right side.

Start up a right-facing dihedral to the left until it is possible to move up and to the right in a right-leaning crack. Place gear and move up and right, following the crack to its intersection with the left-facing dihedral (a 5.9- appropriately named "

Dihedral

") to your right. You will intersect the dihedral near a flake. Place good gear and step up and left until a good ledge is reached.

Go up and right to rap from the top of

Forbidden Planet

.

Protection

Small nuts and a few cams.

This climb is protected by some questionable small gear and is certainly not a great route to press your level on.
