Description
This is not only the hardest, but also the best line on this wall. It is varied, mostly sustained, direct, and has aesthetic appeal. This is the hard way out that is alluded to in the Lawyer/Haas description of Day Tripper (5.9). It can also be easily toproped by leading any nearby route and traversing to the anchors, or walking around and doing some 4th class down climbing.
Mantle onto the small ledges and clip the bolt. Work your way up to the crack (shared with Day Tripper), and continue to the ledge beneath the second roof and a white pine tree. Step left onto the gently overhanging face and work your way up the two parallel cracks (crux). Make a couple of difficult moves straight up to the large ledge and fixed anchors.
Location
4' left of Monkey, at some small ledges below a shallow right facing corner and the first ceiling of Day Tripper 12' up. About 6-8 ft right of the block on the path and directly below a bolt.
Protection
Single rack to #2 and nuts. Microcams helpful. Fixed anchor.
