Description:
Exit the last (lowest) campsite in Lily Pad Campground and follow a faint trail up to and along the base of what I call the Dr. Seuss wall. Green Eggs and Ham is situated a hundred meters or so down this wall. The first climb (When you Wishon a Star) is fifty meters or so from the campground. Sam I Am is twenty-five meters or so farther on. Begin below and to the left of a large loose flake. Just up the wall in a pocket is a baby pine tree. Climb up to a bolt taking care to miss the baby pine. Climb right up a ramp toward the loose flake. A couple of small cams or chocks can be placed in the more secure cracks near this flake. Climb up and left from the flake to the top of the wall. The bolt is a two inch by 3/8’s Fixe wedge. I placed it by hand, from stance, on lead. First Ascent by Bob Walton and John Miller on June 22, 2005.
