Description

Awesome route tackling the

Upper Watchtower

. First climb the face to the left of

Extreme Unction

to a ledge, then up a hand crack with great ledges. Traverse left beneath a roof, breathe deep, and fire the roof with 70 feet of air beneath you! An interesting leftward shuffle above and awkward mantle complete the difficulties.

Location

Ominous looking prow above the

Main Watchtower

. Above

Broken Serenity

and

Garden of Eden

. There are anchors on the North edge of the summit. A 70m gets you down, otherwise rap to the

Extreme Unction

anchors.

Protection

Standard rack. The crux protects very well and there's a pin or two above it.
