This is a fun route, and worth doing if you are in the area!

Start behind big flake that is left of the obvious chimney. Climb the hands start (made easier by back-stepping pillar behind you). After a couple of wide moves, you will arrive at a small alcove. From here, the route goes up the arching, wide crack that is easier than it looks. Now just sit back, and enjoy  the views of the crowds on

Plumb Line

(while you bring your second up).

This is the cool looking corner system to a huge roof.

Climb the crack with some bird droppings and bones.  Traverse the roof and fire up to a ledge.  The crux for me on the first pitch was pulling around from the traverse to the ledge.  I belayed on the ledge since I used my #5 on the first pitch and I didn't want any rope drag issues caused by the huge traverse.  For Pitch two, nice hand/fist stacks and thrashing in general will get you to the anchors at the top of the crack.  There is lots of poo in the roof traverse, but it can be avoided.

The second pitch is harder than it looks from the ground.

To keep with the Vedauwoo sandbag standards, I should probably rate this 5.9, but realistically it seemed to be in the mid-10 range.

Descent:  rap from the two bolt anchor.

This is a pretty wild route, and it will keep your attention from the start. Begin the route slightly left of the wide crack, and traverse back right when you can. The crack gets progressively wider as you get closer to the ceiling that forms a T. Boldly head straight left on horizontal crack with wide hands and less than ideal feet (heel hooking helpful). The only thing that detracts from this route is large amounts of bat poop at the traverse, luckily you can avoid it with a little care. It is pretty unique route for Veedauwoo, hop on it if you are in the area!
