Physical Graffiti, an obvious splitter just past Cannibal Crag:

Cave to get out of the wind, the route was very well sheltered from the wind, which was ripping once we got to the top of the hill.

We walked off to the climbers left, fun few hours of climbing.

 

Gear Notes:

I had (6) cams to 3", doubles 2.5" and (8) nuts, I ran it out on P2 and ran out of gear at the top of P2.

Recommend doubles 2" to 4", singles .5" to 2", set of medium - large nuts.

 

Approach Notes:

Physical Graffiti is just past Cannibal Crag on the left, it's only a few hundred yards from the Calico Hills parking lot.

Summitpost has a good description.
