Description

Start below a prominent arete and place gear to access the first bolt that protects a cool roof and gets you on the arete. More gear and another couple bolts protects you as you mostly climb the right side of the arete and get as much exposure as you so desire. A fun route that has mostly good rock quality. Finishes at the same anchors as Pipe Cleaner.

Two bolt anchor with quick links and chain links. Same anchors as for Pipe Bomb and Pipe Cleaner.

Location

Upslope of Proto Pipe, below the prominent arete on the north facing wall that has a bolt placed on it just above a small roof.

Protection

Double rack with some long draws and some quick draws for the 3 bolts that help protect the roof moves.
