Modern route equipped with quality hardware that goes at a moderate grade!

Five pitches of climbing up to 5.10a or 5.8+, depending on which final pitch you choose.

Pitch 1: Climb the fun and easy right facing corner to face climbing past three bolts. Pretty rock.

Pitch 2: Climb over two bolt protected 5.7 bulges and then edge your way to the roof and right facing corner above. Climb the corner until able to break left and up to an anchor.

Pitch 3: A short crack leads to a 5.8+ bolt protected bulge, and then beautiful patina face climbing brings you past more bolts to another anchor.

Pitch 4: Easy slab and corner system leads to a big ledge, some trees, and another anchor.

Pitch 5: Either climb the fun 10a bolt protected face above anchor, or step left to a 5.7 slick left facing corner.

Scramble to the awesome summit of Marmot Dome!

Route is equipped for easy rappel with single 70m rope. Or walk off to the SE, involves some 3rd class slabs.
