Gut Feeling

This route can be found on the Tourist Trail below the Whale's Tail, between the pedestrian Bridge and the Monument Cave. Walk along the trail past a thin, open, left-facing dihedral. ([Dihedral One]) and to a second one, still right facing, undulating dihedral (Dihedral Two.) You will notice a series of chalked up holds working up and left on jugs to the left of dihedral a meter or two. Along the way you will pad a tapped-in gutter nail. Continuing the climb upward, through the roof, is easier than stopping for protection anyway, but obviously heady. Once on the slab, protect and start climbing right, towards the anchors above "M." These chain & links are good for a lower off or stationary belay.

You can place a few pieces in Dihedral Two, nearby and keep stepping right to do so (.5-2" cams) or you can just run this out a little. Take long slings. Once on the upper slab, it was easy to put in directionals and go to the sport anchor and lower or rap off above 'M'.
