Description
This isn't my route, but let's include it in the database. The rock on the entire dome is friable, the same as 11 years ago, but this is still a good pitch worth doing when here. It is not exactly a sport climb, just sort of a typical 'Platte spacing on 3/8" bolts.
EDIT: as of 4-5-16, there is now a 2 bolt anchor at the top of this line where you expect one and
4 bolts have been added
! (one down at the bottom and 3 on the upper section. Now I guess it is a sport climb.)
[In it's original form, I always took a hard right at the last bolt (which is orphaned by the new bolts) and went 20 odd feet to meet up with the obvious cold-shut anchor bolts. (Otherwise, you'd have to contend with the minefield of rocks waiting to kill your belayer.) Yes, it was more run-out but safer since the climbing was reasonable.]
Location
This is just about in the middle of the face, left of the arete climb,
