The Pinnacle Escalada em rocha 12 vias no setor

About 60 feet left of Army Route, Kendlee can be identified by two bolts on the left wall of the short, right-facing dihedral at the top of the route. Currently the leftmost developed line on the Pinnacle's east aspect.

Pitch 1 - Starts in the large open-book corner to the right of Minaret. Stay to the left of a roof and continue up and left to a belay ledge with a beefy anchor. (100 feet)

Pitch 2 - Head left from the anchor and locate a large crack. Look for the old Army rebar eyebolts heading up in the vicinity of the crack. Some of these are solid but others can be manky, so it's advisable to back them up with gear when possible. Follow roughly the line indicated by the eyebolts up a deteriorating face, moving slightly right until you can attain a large ledge with one fixed eyebolt. Build an anchor here. (150 feet)

Pitch 3 - From the large belay ledge, locate more eyebolts leading up to an obvious weakness in the roof overhead. Turn the roof on good rock and make a few more moves to a good belay ledge below the summit block. Either build an anchor here with good options or head up to the summit and resort to less than desirable anchor options. (65 feet)

Descent - Climb down the other side of the summit block and walk out onto the gravelly ridge below. From here you can descend east down the Tinseltown Gully or northwest down another gully. Both are loose and gravelly.

Pitch 1 - Start in a water streak with a bolt 5 feet above the horizontal crack. Clip 9 bolts to an anchor.

Pitch 2 - From the anchor head up and left past 4 more bolts (the first is hard to see) to another anchor.

Great moderate sport route in beautiful and exposed setting; best in the canyon in this user's view. Anchor on ledge at top of first pitch are good enough; second belay is from a tree 15 ft. back from a ledge to climber's left before the top of the wall. Crux move comes at a small bulge in the second pitch. First pitch is a bit runout on easy ground. An excellent first multi-pitch lead, as the climbing is mighty fun and the anchors, when used thoughtfully, are bomber. Descent is down the back side through a gulley to the West.
