Description

Easy climbing throughout with fairly positive holds. Two points of easy protection in the first 20/25 feet and then run out to about 50 foot up to a difficult nut or small hex placement. From there run it out to bisect the second pitch of old ladies then traverse towards the start of the second pitch of old ladies.

Recommend long extensions on gear to minimize rope drag through the minimal pieces. Our team felt this was more of a 5.4 X, the grade loaded here recognizes what is in the guide book.

Location

Top out to the ledge above backstage pass then start off the large rock ramp to the left of lady elaine. There is a segment of clean, fairly polished rock that shoots straight up towards Old Ladies. That's the route.

Protection

Nuts, and or small hexes/cams.
