An overview with the route drawn in. From the top of pitch 5, there are 5 pitches of 4th class/5.0 to the top, easy climbing, but loose rock with exposure on the ridge. Hip belays worked well here.

Re: I know it's bad rock and stuff...

I figured you would be interested, I actually thought about putting in the route description that the route was not recomended, unless you were a Chalupa.

No seriously, it is worth doing once, the Wolf Rock formation is such a cool lump of rock, it just begs to be climbed. The views are quite good as you head up. If you get a chance to try it, I can't wait to hear what you think.

Re: bolts

Bolts, what bolts? We only came across one bolt on the entire route.

The first ascent

I was actually looking around for possible routes one day alone and thought that I might get a better view over toward the steep wall and roof system that ultimately became Barad-Dur and Pooh Corner. It was drizzly, sort of damp, and I scrambled the route in Galibier hiking boots. Didn't repeat.
