Description:
The longest sport route out here. Four bolted pitches going up on the south side of the main wall. Just look for the black lichen covering the face right of the overhung prow and a tan chain anchor on the ledge trail. P1: Rap from chain to ground, up easy jugs to a bulge (5.8, 85'); P2: climb up the arete, stay left, to a huge block, up and left to top of the block. P3: Up steep face to a thin dihedral, look for flake on the right of the roof, up left to a rail and finish on a ledge. Last pitch wanders mostly up left side of arete then up center of face, this last part is another huge flake. Sounds hollow but it's big.Descent Options:
Rap route w/60m rope

Very nice!
I think the second pitch gave us the most challenge at the "huge block". Top 3 pitches quite sustained all the way. I would rate the pitches 7,10c,b,b.
