Awesome mix of mandatory freeclimbing, aiding leads to a boltladder to access the money pitches - C2/C3 on sandstone on an absurdly steep prow. This route comes complete with plush bivy and BBQ. Don't walk past it.

Lots of offset alloy nuts, offset micros (brassies and peanuts) as well as small totems keep things sensible on the aid cruxes of this route, take a good selection of hooks. Note the spicy free on P2 may be a showstopper for some parties.

Further beta see the supertopo Zion book and mountain project log.

Obviously the usual issues regarding sandstone - ie. needs to be dry, no camhooks.

Ciao!
