1st Pitch- 185’- 5.8/ Run up the lower face just right of the black water streak below the right side of the arch. You will not find much protection until you reach the black varnish where you can place a nut or two. There is a scoop in the water streak that will take a cam as well. The climbing is fairly tame through this section. Reach the corner forming the right side of the arch and place gear as you mix solid facial features to the left with corner moves. Continue to climb as the corner arches left and do a semi hanging belay off a bolted station on the wall. Avoid chasing the corner in, stay out on the face towards the end on crimpy, but real solid holds. (photos)
