With Karl from Cedar City. Fairly dirty, chossy and obscure route. Probably only for those of us hell bent on doing all the free climbs (within our ability) in Zion. But if you are game, you are rewarded with a few good pitches. The off-width was weird but fun...I soloed it, large gear really won't help you, it is not parallel cracks, rather an off-width opening. The 4th-5th pitch combo was the most sustained by far, take all the finger and off-set cams you own. The rock you are stemming on is mossy and fragile and you will want to place a lot of gear because of that. The 6th pitch is pretty cool, but the same on the rock quality. 2nd pitch if fun. The raps need reinforced. Rapped off two single bolts.
