This route is the left-hand of two face climbs on the south face of the Eiffel Tower.  The Eiffel Tower is a large summit-pinnacle which lies on the left (west) side of the southern entrance to the Butler Corridor.

Climb a short crack/pillar/crack feature on the left side of the face. A fixed angle piton is found here -- though perfect cams fit here and seem much more secure.

Above the crack, face climb pretty much directly up past seven bolts and one more fixed pin. The climbing is sustained and excellent.

Two bolt anchor.

This route is on the west side about 25' south of "The Secret of Mother Butler." A very large nolina is at the base of the route. Climb double cracks for about 30' and then veer left over two bulges (cruxes) before making committing moves back right near the top to the rappel station. Nice climb with varied movement (3 out of 5 stars).

This long pitch crosses a large face via an arching left to right crack.  Climb the crack with nice jams interspersed with long moves, mostly smearing for feet.  About 1/2 way across you encounter the crux, with hard "horizontal laybacking" off a rail. This type of movement continues until you can jam again, almost at the end of the traverse.

Continue climbing (optional large piece) around the corner to easier, but fun climbing up a groove/crack.

The face needs some cleanup, but is mostly solid, not the kitty litter some loose faces have.  Due partially to its traversing nature this pitch is quite long.

This stellar right-slanting finger / hand crack is on the west side of the corridor at the north end. Solid hand jams and finger locks are encountered to the top. The sharp crystals inside the crack may warrant protective tape for your hands. Great climb - 3 out of 5 stars.

This is the right of two bolted climbs on the formation called The Eiffel Tower. The climbing is excellent.

Located on the outside of Butler Corridor this is a double crack system about 75 yards before the entrance to Bulter Corridor on the right side.  It is located left of  a Y crack high on the face. Approach by dropping into a narrow corridor by a tree that heads into the rock.

Climb a short boulder problem to a mantle on poor rock,  a fall here would be unfortunate, and there's no pro.  The start of the real crack is about 15" higher.  Hand jam double cracks to the top.  This finishes in the same place as Appetite for Destruction.
