Description

Just to the left of Caravan.  Start in the chimney and follow the bolts onto the face.  Mostly 5.7-5.9 with one 5.10 face move by the second bolt.  Cams to #2 and slings for extension.

It's possible to start this climb from the ledge above and to the left of the chimney (required if using a short rope to TR).

Var - instead of climbing the chimney, face climb past the first bolt and through the weird square xenolith. This is a more challenging (~5.9) start. Rejoin the climb above the chimney.

Protection

3 bolts and cams to #2 BD, shares anchor (rappel hangers) with Caravan. Another bolt is found on the optional lower slab start, plus one more if finishing on the last slabby crux of Caravan.
