Description:
This is a destination climb. A classic with two great pitches. The last pitch has three bolts on beautiful white rock, and the last bolt protects the hight-related crux. The first ascent party placed bolts on rappel. Start scrambling up left about 20 feet on ledges from base of huge left-facing corner of Easy Verschneidung. Pitch 1: 5.6 PG 100 ft. Climb up face past right-facing corners and flakes to the small overhang, move left and up the bulging face (crux) to the GTLedge. Pitch 2: 5.8 PG 100 ft. Pass notch in overhang (5.7 PG) to a stance. Continue up face passing two bolts to the final bolt in the short bulging headwall. Work up this (crux) to bolt anchor/rap station. Beautiful climb. Really nice low angle face, a rarity in the Gunks.Descent Options:
Rap off using bolted anchors on top of each pitch.

Onsight, no falls.
Got a little sketched out coming off the GT ledge - awkward moves pulling into that roof. Thin climbing by the bolts on P2. Gotta find that crimp to mantle and top out.

Fun climb
Crux move at the top felt harder than a 5.8, but it's protected by a very solid bolt.
