120m, 4 pitches. Refer to Mountain Project for approach and GPS coordinates of parking and descent gully. Two ropes are handy for rope management and descent. Takes wires.
1. 10b 35m Climb the huge corner to the roof and traverse right to the lip. Grovel through wide stuff to a solid anchor.
2. 10c 45m Traverse right along foot ledge to the base of the long and sustained crack system. Good gear and many bulges lead past an old intermediate anchor. Push past this through a funky corner and final meaty bulge to bomber anchors.
3 11c 20m Tricky climbing to the first bolt then crux moves through that (V5ish). Less than stellar rock, much scrittle and expando flakes. If you want you can pull some aid trickery and get through this section at a more consistent grade.
4. 5.8 15m The glory pitch! Not easy at 5.8 but not hard after all that’s come before. Solid anchors and the best view in Monument Basin await.

Descent:- Summit to top of P1 with double ropes & from there to the ground. Easy pulls.
