FA Vernon Phinney-1989 Ground Up
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

Follow the rock down & around to the left. As the ground starts rising a water chute runs up the rock on the right.

Climb up the chute with some big crystals to help you out, clipping bolts as you find them. Once you get on 'top' the bolts end and you get to scramble on easy rock to the summit block. Stand up & clip the bolt on the summit block, pull the final move(s) to the summit and anchors.

Note that the route is rather 'runout' and exposed getting to the last bolt, even though it's probably only 4th class. Not your typical sport climb.

From the top anchors, rap down the face that holds Pelican's Dyke and Xenophenia. If you're so inclined, set up a TR before coming down...

Protection

5 draws and something for the 2 bolt anchor on top.

Does the rap require a 60m?
