R2D2 5.8 R

We climbed R2D2 thinking there was a 2nd pitch and discovered there was a 2nd pitch, which we decided to name Crunchy Tapatio. From the belay anchors ascend either go up through a large pocket above the belay anchors or continue on the right a few feet up the ramp and ascend up holds. This pitch is a really hard 5.8 or a 5.9 with lots of run out. Once above the head wall move up and to left to a low angle area and search for a small pocket for a 00 Metolious cam for protection. Then there is 30 more feet of run out to a ledge where you can place crack protection. Belay from that point then ascend up the crack (5.5) to walk off the top to the left towards Tenaya Lake. The 2nd and 3rd pitch can be combined into one pitch but communicating would be very hard and can be done on (1) 60 meter rope. Placed no bolts on the ascent used natural protection. Bring approach shoes to walk off with.
