Petch Pietrolungo and __ (who was your partner?) in August 2005 put up this killer new face route on Lower Buttress at Lover's Leap. It starts about 30 feet right of Sinbad-Herbert and climbs 190 feet with 9 bolts and one knob tie-off to the anchors of Sinbad Herbert Direct. The crux is a powerful roof that Petch rates 5.10c but i thought might be a little stouter. There are bolts at all the hard moves and then a couple 20-foot runouts on the easier terrain. To descent, either traverse right to The Groove anchors.

Here are some photos of petch following that i took.
