Description:
This one is a classic. The headwall pitches are a bit beat out. Start at the freeblast and then haul to Mammoth Ledges. The route has gone clean before but most parties still nail on three of the headwall pitches.

The shield roof opens your eyes, after that they're open till the top!! I had done a few El Cap routes before this, I thought I was prepared. Technicaly yes, Headwise... thats another story! Awesome route, great exposure. Couldn't ask to be in a better location than this on El Cap.
