This route is not really part of the Ironsides. I don't know what the rock is called. Chump and a couple other routes exist across the valley from the Ironsides. There is a cool cave that allows passage to the other side. On the other side of the cave there are two overhanging routes to the left. Chump is the short line on the left. This is a cold place!!!

Fun pumpy moves pull out through an overhanging bulge to a small ledge and the anchors. The rock isn't the best, but the moves are fun. A good warm up for Pump. A couple other OK routes lie around the corner on the other side of the cave.

A crumbly crack start leads to great face climbing. It is in the shade most of the day.

Climb the crumbly but easy crack to the high first bolt. It might be possible to get some poor gear in the crack. Climb the gently overhanging face on positive edges to a surprising finish. This stays on you the whole way!

Pump has great, sustained climbing with no stopper move. Pumpy!

P1) 5.12b. Climb overhanging rock on reasonable holds with great movement.

This is West of (around the corner from) Pump, in the cave area across the "valley" from Ironsides.

The crux is between the 1st and 2nd bolt.  To me, it felt like 11c/d, but the Gillett guide rates it 11b. This is good rock and good climbing with thin, sequential moves.
