Description

Really cool long pitch up a stunning face. Balancy and precise, but steep enough to make you work for it. Beautiful position over a bend in the Owen's River.

Location

Just left of the left side of the Eldorado Roof. About 10 meters right of the ladder that bypasses the ledge with Dilithium Crystal. Starts up a shallow corner. Shares the first bolt with Wiggly.

Protection

14 bolts, 2 anchor bolts.

The Marty Lewis guidebook, 11th edition  lists this route as 37.5 meter lower off. I managed to lower off with a 70 meter rope, but my buddy had to let the end slip through the Grigri! Some brands cut their ropes longer than 70 meters -- mine is Mammut. Anyways, tie a knot!

If you can't reach the ground, you can lower to the anchors of Enraged Pixie. It might be hard to get your remaining quickdraws on lower out, however.
