Description:

A garden classic trad route. Begin about 30' left of the End of an Era arete and follow the obvious crack/dihedral system for 2 or 3 pitches. Rappel the route, or climb to the summit and downclimb the south side of the summit. Realize if you go above the belay alcove and summit you will have to downclimb to either rap rings on the west side or downclime the whole way. This route is often closed in the spring and/or summer due to raptor nesting. Please obey all closures. The first belay station is very tight. Basically a hanging belay making a party of three or more next to impossible, but can be skipped with a 60 M rope

5 out of 5 stars New Era

Great climb in 3 pitches. Sketchy walkoff.
