5.10b | ★★★ Bone Machine
A real rope-stretcher - a true 35m climb. Between Raindogs and Blue Valentine, start at a low and obvious bolt. Follow the bolt line up a tricky slab of thin 5.8 climbing that requires a bit of acrobatics to get around. Climb the slab up to the far, back, right corner of the wall. Here, there is an intermediate anchor, but a 70m rope will be enough to lower from the top. From there, continue up a steep, fun, blocky section that is a bit overhung. One difficult move off a triangular block allows you to gain the upper edge, with easy climbing to the exposed anchors. Excellent views. Very fun route!
