Hey all,
I drew this up after the first time I climbed the route as I found the topo in the guide book rather vague. After recommending the route to a friend he got lost. So I thought I'd post a topo. I climbed it with my wife for my second time her first and it seemed accurate.
Its a typical Black Canyon affair but rather moderate and quite clean for such a huge wall. I have done the Stoned Oven finish first time (recommended) and chose the gulley/ gnarly looking thing to the left with my wife due to heat (Original Movable Feast Exit?) and going left is NOT GOOD! Thought I was gonna die! Definitely 5.9X loose choss! Better to tough it out on Stoned Oven finish. Star rating??? Well its the Black its always 3 stars at the top.
Anyway I couldn't figure out the route beta post part of the website so I'm putting it here. If you can't see let me know. If you know how to put it in a more useful place let me know.

I've done the climb, kinda fun- can't read your topo.

Corner, gully, finish on S.O. Is there more to it than that?

Can't read topo
I remember not being sure if we were on the right route. It's a fun start. The peg groove felt really hard at the time (height-dependent stemming maybe?). Womb fight was just that. Don't remember a nasty gully finish. After Womb Fight I don't remember anything actually.

It really needs a scan or larger photo of the topo....

Don't even start, Clint- you've got enough on your hands in Yosemite.

This was a topo that I drew up last year. The one in the guidebook is definitely lacking, but I think the climb itself is pretty good. For us mere mortals it's the easiest line up that section of North Chasm Wall.
