I Can See For Miles

Climb up the wall using large chert nodules.

Crux is at start of second pitch.

Excellent climbing on good solid chert.

This climb follows the gully system between between American Beauty and Sea of Joy.  The first pitch works up a series of short faces to ledges and stances (5.6).  The second pitch (5.7) continues on steeper rock and works up really interesting runnels and sculpted grey limestone with the occasional chert hold thrown in.  Worth doing for the second pitch.

Start 30 feet left of "Truckin" and climb up a smooth grey face with big moves on good pockets.  Gain a ledge below a chert face.  Thiin moves off the ledge lead to slighlty bigger holds.  Continue up engaging chert climbing to the anchors.

Pitch 1:  Start with tough moves past the first two bolts and climb just left of a white streak on a orange face.  Aim for a a break in the trees to a ledge.  Continue up a short face to a second ledge and belay at chain anchors.

Pitch 2: Work up to and over a tough bulge 2 bolts off the ledge.  Continue on thin chert to a second smaller bulge just below the top anchors.
