Approach:
Use the Northeast approach and aim towards the start of McCarthy North Face Route. Call Evita 911 is the crack between Mystic and the Mulchers and Neverlasting. The climb starts at a nice stance, with a Pine tree, at the base of Mystic and the Mulchers.
Route Description:
This fanciful line was first climbed, on August 5, 2001 by Dr Eva Martin, Frank Sanders & Greg Cox. It is another "one-pitch-wonder", that is quite fun (although it looks quite unlikely) and is well protected.
Pitch 1. (5.9, 155 ft.) From the belay, at the base of Mystic, traverse right one crack, and climb it !! Fingers, face, stems and smears take you to the point where Mystic and Neverlasting converge. Continue up to the Mystic belay bolts. The crux is stem and face climbing, midway up the pitch. Fine protection is provided by small stoppers and cams.
Essential Gear:
Small stoppers down to #3 and some smaller cams give fine protection.
