Description:

Climb the chimney system with a chock stone to the right of Totem Pole and Sunday Gardening. The chimney gives way to a wide crack that doesn't require OW skills. The wide crack narrows to thin hands (crux). After the thin hands section traverse right around the arete and proceed to the sling anchors on True Colors. Note that the original anchors and last 10 feet of the route are now inaccessible due to a large dead tree overhanging the cliff.

Descent Options:

Sling anchors

4 out of 5 stars Fun initial chimney section

An definite change from typical T-Wall routes with a little bit of everything.
