Description
A three pitch route that offers solitude and sweet views, a good little adventure route.
Morning sun.
Location
Hike up Padre canyon for 20 - 30 min. route will be obvious up and left. From here you can see the trail going up some steep switchbacks to a saddle. Continue on the trail, after a few switchbacks head up and left to the base of the route. total approach time is around 40 min.
From the top of the route, hike/ scramble up and right to the ridge. Follow this ridge down (some down climbing)until it is possible to traverse back to the base of the route.
Rappelling this route is not recommended.
Protection
double set .33" to 3" extra 1.5" 60m rope!
pitch 1 and 2 have bolted belays. You can rap from pitch one but pitch two will almost certainly trap your rope forever. Pitch 3 is long 200', belay on tree.
