Little Cottonwood is one of the most beautiful canyons I have every experienced and this route is a classic! Super fun varied climbing and the exposure on pitch 5 isn't to bad either.
- Route -
P1. Take the shallow dihedral to the right of the bolted face. Fantastic fingers and flakes merge with the right dihedral. 100' up and 5.7.
P2. We accidentally climbed the first pitch of Japanese Terraces. Wouldn't recommend and would stay on the original route.
P4. Scramble straight up up 3rd class terrain to the base of the large face above you. Easy climbing for 15' going slightly left, then back right to a large ledge. Follow the ramp to the chains you can see from the belay in the middle of the face. Best to combine this the P5. Use lots of alpine draws I didn't see how much it wanders and had HORRENDOUS rope drag. 5.7.
P5. The money pitch! From the chains, make a delicate couple moves almost straight left to gain the finger size crack in the face. Trust your feet! When the crack ends, use flakes to go slight right and up to a single bolt. 5.8 .
Descend by three raps and staying right on Sasquatch.
