The track is undermined at the final hand rope leading to the ledge below Hecklers. Clip into the new red double hand rope and keep hard left while crossing this section. Other sections are also problematic. Be very careful.

description

Now 5-6 pitches right to the top.

  1. [18, 9b] Wander up the arete to the D.B.C. of sunset ledge.

  2. [15, 7b] Left into the corner then back right and up to reach the hand rope. Take that leftward.

  3. [16, 8b] As for P2 of Mexican Americans to the big ledge below New Wave Wall.

  4. [18, 8b] The leftmost line of bolts over bulges to belay below the wall left of the arete.

  5. [20, 10b] Up the right traversing line of bolts around the corner to the arete, then up the arete to reach a ledge and anchor. Best clip this with a long sling and continue.

  6. [14, 2b] A short easy pitch to the top. Walk off away from the cliff and up to the ridge track (pink tape). See better description above.
