Exhibition Wall

This route is a challenging way to finish off a day of cragging. The route offers varied climbing on slightly less than ideal stone in a beautiful setting. Make sure you're solid at the grade before attempting--you don't want to epic in front of the tourists! This route would be very easy to TR, but use care reaching the anchor as it is extremely exposed.

Begin at the far north end of the E face, about 10 feet from the north buttress. Climb up and slightly left along a rounded fin. After clipping a fixed pin, the crack disappears and a few steep, crux face moves gain another good crack (a bit runout here, but a marginal RP is possible). Follow this straight up to a detached flake. Traverse left along the base of the flake (don't pull too hard!), then head up on good face holds left of the flake to a splitter finger crack with hand-sized pods. Check out the two ancient ring-angles in the crack (may want to back-up these relics), then fire straight up to the blocky roofs. Traverse up and right under the roofs to the belay tree.

On the East Face of the Fin. There are two ways to approach from the La Luz trail. The most obvious is to descend the talus from the La Luz trail when the route first comes into view. Another option is to stay on the La Luz until the trail passes below the bottom of the formation.

Gear to 3". Bring at least 3 QDs for fixed pins. Its possible to rap/lower off with one 60m rope from a sling anchor with a steel ring.
