Description

Start about 10 ft right of Groov-in, between Found Arch and the dark rock of Vector. Climb past TWO 3/8" bolts and continue up past 2 more to a 2-bolt anchor with chains.

Per Bob A's COMMENT in Rhumb Line: "Lost Arch has a low stainless bolt just above a small overlap. The second bolt is quite a ways up through the crux.The third is just behind a small tree growing out of a big pocket then a fourth straight up to a two bolt anchor to the right of a rotten flake."

Protection

4 Draws, plus maybe a longer sling, should the temptation to reach over and clip the new 3/8" bolt on Vector arise !

Descent: A single 70m makes it from the chains; a single 60m would require some downclimbing. If lowering with a 60m TIE A KNOT in the end.
