Description
Mainly a way to connect from the bottom left of the "Central Fins" part (or first part of "CF Left Corners") to the mid-way anchor for "CF Wandering" and "CF Right Groove" (and "Upper Right Face"). Also connects with the other route "Right End Ledge" coming from the opposite direction.
Lots of thoughtful interesting moves with slanted-friction feet in the second half.
directions
: Start same as "CF Left Tower + Groove" up to the first platform. Then flat / gentle over the top of the roof of the first crux of the route "CF Left Corners" to reach bolt (shared with "CF Left Corners"). Next up left to get hands onto start of positive edge going up diagonal right. Up this diagonal and pass horizontal under the overhanging crack crux of the route "CF Left Corners". Next diagonal up right about 30 feet through challenges with slopy feet to reach the Left mid-way anchor (two bolts).
warning
: The rock in this sector has not been climbed much yet, and much of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber.
Location
Start at the base start fo the route "CF Left Tower + Groove".

Protection
3 bolts to Left mid-way bolt anchor

Left mid-way anchor is two-bolts-connected-by-climbing rope, with rappel ring.
. . (Bolts + upper hanger are 304 Stainless steel. Lower hanger + rappel ring are Plated steel. Installed 2018).
