Probable Cause

Description

My complements to the first ascender, this is a really fun climb on a not so obvious line. Starts off on a detached flake. Then up over a ledge where the climber spins completely around and then up through a section of underclings on oddball features alternating with slabby sections. Then to a memorable airy, athletic crux move on an arête and on to a nice slabby finish on the face.Look around; this crux move isn't quite as hard as it first appears (and is perfectly protected by the fourth bolt). Probable Cause packages a lot of memorable moves into 50 -60 feet. Loved it -only problems are some patches of lichen and gritty rock, but nothing too bad.

Location

Down the descending gully from Enjoy the Journey. There is a random seemingly pointless lone bolt off to the side of the Probable Cause bolt line.

Protection

4 bolts- a bit sparse but perfectly placed.
