Description:

This climbs the beautiful face left of the huge Twilight Zone roof. Climb a corner and face on fun edges to a ledge. Walk right along the ledge to a right facing corner. Climb up the corner moving left and right following the path of least resistance, which involves tricky route finding to find the easiest line. Great climb, and tough for the grade.

5 out of 5 stars definitely pg

GREAT route, with alot of exposure for a 5.4. Led p.3 ($$). Tricky gear for protecting the traverse, don't listen to the guidebook and go up to the roof to traverse or it will be way more difficult, its much easier to traverse a bit lower and go up. Some hollow flakes with fiddly gear made the moves even more airy and scary. Beautiful belay ledge at the top with nice view of Twilight zone (got to enjoy watching some folks work it). Guidebook makes the ledge hard to find, go to a flake ~15 feet under a hand traverse, very comfortable seating on ledge and the climb is gorgeous and quiet and secluded! Five stars!!
