Approach


Trail starts just off the side of Hiway 20, four miles east of Washington Pass. The approach follows endless switchbacks up to burgundy Col. Drop down a couple hundred feet, then veer south under Burgundy Spire until just below Chianti.

Route Description


The route is 6 pitches of clean crack climbing. The upper headwall crack is outstanding, and is what makes this route a classic. It goes from thin hands to 4 inch off width. The crack is clean, steep and strenuous. One of the best couple pitches in the area. The summit block can be climbed, as there is a bolt on top, allowing the climber to stradle it and complete his/her rebel yell.

Essential Gear


A couple 4 inch cams are handy, as well as a couple 3 inch and a 3.5 inch piece.
