Description
Solid Delicacy is the central line of the upper, lefthand terrace of the Anti-Theme Wall (see Location section).
Begin with a shared start with Rhinopotomus and move right at the third bolt (consider skipping/back-cleaning the third bolt)... Two closely-spaced bolts (the first is a spinner) mark the entry into the meat of the climbing which is characterized by having thin feet, lots of side pulls, and very hard-to-read sequences. The rock is perfect and the climbing relentless with not much in the way of rests, but it isn't really one you'll be writing home about. Still, a worthwhile route.
Location
On the Anti-Theme Wall (the wall just right of the Wailing Wall). It is most easily approached directly up the hillside from the wash. If you're lucky you'll stumble upon bits of an overgrown, washed out trail but don't be surprised if you are mostly hoofing it cross country. The Anti-Theme Wall can also be approached by a someone circuitous via ferrata of fixed lines from the rightmost edge of the Wailing Wall (allow 5-10 minutes and wear your harness).
Protection
11x bolts plus anchors. Consider bringing a few longer draws/slings for the start.
