Description:

Climb the first pitch of Surrealistic Pillar. On the second pitch, instead of traversing left after 20' of climbing, continue up the wide crack above to a gully leading to the top. Not suggested unless you know for sure no one is below you. Not a real great finish to a classic climb.

1 out of 5 stars Surrealistic Pillar Direct Finish

The original looks so much better. Unfortunately we missed the traverse and ended up on this chosspile. Loose and runout on easy terrain. Fortunately, the beginning (and G/PG) pitches are still classic. Now we know what to do next time.
