The Ripple

Description

Climb a thin but secure sequence to the first bolt. Clip this and head straight up to the second and last bolt underneath a small roof. Move left and around the roof and look for the thin gear placement. Pull over the rounded lip on slopey hands and feet, a committing move.The guidebook does not include the "R" rating. I am including it here to highlight that a fall without the gear placement would likely be a ground fall, and the placement is a bit finicky. A purple Metolius Master Cam 0 seemed like the right size but I was unable to fit my fingers far enough into the flair to place it and ran it out. Of course, I could have missed a more obvious spot but only climbed it once. I would suggest being solid at the grade. 

Location

Between Western Flyer and Tree Line. Start directly off the trail about 20ft. to the left of Tree Line, closer to the dam. 

Protection

2 bolts with thin to finger sized gear up high. Two bolt anchor. There is a bolt not visible from the ground that can be used as a directional for TR.
