Description
Pretty straightforward, check out the topo. Somebody put in lead bolts on P4 and 5. They don't look like upgrades. I clipped 'em but it probably goes without them.
P4 could have gone straight up, I followed the shiny bolts right.
P5 has a sick direct wide crack for the climbers worried about the fixed blades, that are both loose.
Route probably goes free at like 5.12something, if you can figure out the pendulum.
We put a new rap bolt in the summit.
Descent is chill and quick with 2 60's
Location
Start in the okay looking hand crack 200' right of the arch below the giant roof.
Protection
Full desert aid rack, doubles in wide gear and micro cams.
The 000 C3 was a key piece on two sections.
We didn't use hooks or Big Bros
P2 pendulum will be super spooky if the blade rips
P5 will still probably go if those blades rip
