Description

Begin on

Sidewinder

and where that route cuts left continue up over a small roof and past three bolts on featured rock to gain the prominent dike. Traverse left, clip a final bolt, (shared with

Sidewinder

and make the long tenuous traverse up and left to the top.

The descent is to the climber's left, where a bit of down-climbing, or a leap, will access a pinnacle with rap anchors.

Although essentially a variation to

Sidewinder

this route is equally as good and a recommended alternative if you've already done that route.

Location

Start as per

Sidewinder

at a left-facing flake.

Protection

5 bolts (3/8"), gear to 3"
