Description:

Start on same ledge as Fear of Flying but move out right and clip bolt (fixed draw). Climb up short layback flake until possible to step left onto face. Climb face past several bolts to top. Difficult face climbing. Classic!

We were bored and I was about to turn 40. It was hot, humid but shady. We were not thinking clearly but I made it with sweat poring down my eyes. Scary runout before the modern retro-bolting by City of Scottsdale.
