Mostly medium gear (cams, tri-cams, nuts); some large cams up to #4 Camalot or equivalent down low on P1 are useful. Bolted anchors.

Description:
This challenging two-pitch route can be done in one pitch, but it's not advisable unless you have a 70-meter rope. Fairly stiff for the 5.7 grade.P1: At a left-facing corner, either climb a large crack on the left face (easier), or for full value, follow the corner with a variable crack and some balancy moves to a large ledge. 40', 5.7+
P2: From the ledge, follow a pretty orange corner up past blocks to a large roof. Traverse left under the roof, then continue up a vegetated left-facing corner past dirty ledges to the top. 60', 5.7+
Descent Options:
Rap from the anchors.

Can be done with a 60m
I didn't even think to do this climb in two pitches, although it easily could be done that way. A single 60m can be used, just be careful on the rap. A bit stiff and thought inspiring for 5.7.
