Maria's Farewell

This is a wonderful line that can be done in two short pitches or one with a little rope drag. The route starts out with a stout, little, off width, bulgy roof then moves slightly left and up a sweet 5.9 finger crack. The crux of the route is the start of the dihedral. This was the traditional second pitch. It starts out steep and stiff for 15 feet then goes up a joyful dihedral to the top.

On the far right side of the upper wall of the first buttress is a line that heads up into a prominent, shallow, right-facing dihedral.

A standard rack will do nicely.
