MapDescription
One of the best 5.9s in Washington. There are anchors in the middle if you choose to do this as two pitches. If done as one pitch I would alpine sling most the lower bolts then back clean any draw you can reach. The route often will have two draws in 6 feet to protect the crux and you can unclip the lower draw as you go up. A 70 meter rope won't be enough to lower from the upper anchors.
Location
Walk down from west wall past lizard ledge and follow the wall as it bends. The trail kind of levels off here and traverses below the wall. The first route that is west facing on this lower wall is the right spot. This route has the best belay ledge which can hide you from morning to mid afternoon sun.
Protection
17 bolts ( probably 4 alpines) and two anchors
