This is the 2nd face climb (bolt line) from the left.  The crux is getting through the climb and managing your pump

Oh, My My!

Climb the thin finger crack just right of the unknown 5.6

This chimney route is easy to see on the right side of the East Arena; it's on a part of the cliff that faces southwest where the main cliff faces southeast, it's in obviously good rock, and it's the only chimney in this sub-area.

Most of the moves on this route are 5.6. There might be some 5.7 and there is a 5.7 crux right at the end of the fifth class climbing, stemming around a tightly wedged chockstone.

Warning also: although the very-visible chockstone seems well wedged, the climbing quickly turns into class four, loose rubble for the twenty feet right above it.

Walk off left.

P.S. What a great name for a chimney climb!

Climb the flaring chimney to an obvious roof. Exit right and follow the left most crack thru the bulge and up steep terrain to the chains.

The righthand route on this section of wall.  Climb positive holds through a very steep section up high to a two bolt anchor.

We started directly below the 2nd bolt at the base of a short roof. Climb up to the roof, place a cam, pull the roof and clip the bolt (crux). Continue up a splitter. Follow the bolt line left then back right. Great exposure! The original line traverses in right from near Yosemite Crack.
