Bearcat Goes to Hollywood

Sustained slab climbing.

Ascends a prominent slab which starts about 50' off the deck on the left side of Blob Rock. This slab is obvious in the Blob Rock perspective photo.

There are several options for pitch 1: the first pitch of BGTH, 5.9 trad 40'; The first pitch of

Wildcat

, soft 11a sport with 5 bolts;

Divine Wind

11b trad with an easy 5th class connector pitch.

Pitch two involves sustained, intricate slab climbing with a crux at the second to last bolt. The hard to downclimb nature of the climbing makes for a difficult onsight. Originally lead with just a couple of bolts and micro nuts; no thanks. This south-facing route would probably be less enjoyable in full sun. 11d, 70'.

Two raps get you back to the ground.

8 or 9 bolts and a two bolt anchor.
