Description:

Originally went in 3 or 4 pitches, but with a 60 meter rope you can do it in two. Varied crack climbing. Pitch two has a fun, short section of bombay chimney. This is a nice way to approach the coffin. Two bolts with rap hangers are now at 200'. 5.9 Variation for second pitch (and third!) is great warm up for the Coffin.

5 out of 5 stars Classic route

Enjoyed that horrible chimney at the beginning of the second pitch! The belay station for the third pitch can be easy to miss, and don't accidentially get on the 5.9 variation if your not ready! It was heck for me and I followed.
