Climbs the obvious overhanging sculpted arete using balancey moves down low which lead to the upper section of jugs. If this thing went for another hundred feet or so it would be an all-time classic.

Route of All Evil

Route of All Evil lies on the south face of the Evil Pillar, about 10 to the left of Necessary Evil.  This is a very fun easy moderate that climbs mostly on plates.  Start just left of the lesser block in front of Evil Pillar, scrambling up to the right to a ledge between the rocks.  From there, follow the bolt line up past large plates, veering slightly left after the last bolt.  The crux is a delicate section at the second bolt, the one spot where one has to make a couple moves without benefit of the plates.  Even so, probably easier than the listed rating.  Rappel to descend.
