Description
If you're expecting all slab, then you'll be shook by the steep finale. The grade comes from the cruxy start, and the steep finish. Don't expect an easy onsight, this route's chalk and ticks get rained off quickly. Welcome the clean rock and get creative! Good rock, good rests, good crimps, good slopers, a good jam, a "good" mantel! This thing is pure fun.
Best to belay from down and to the left until the 2nd bolt is clipped.
Does not stay dry in the rain. Sun at 1pm
Location
I find the approach via Bob Marley to be easier and feels quicker. Otherwise, walk around to the right side of Drive-By, near Bob Marley.
On the "Walk-By" slab wall, look for the beautiful arete at least 3/4 of the way towards Bob Marley. This is the glue-in line, around the arete from the slab climb Sojourner Truth 10c, and left of the dihedral gear route End of Days 5.8+.
