Sun hits SGS at 1pm and MTD at 2:30pm. Wall can be windy and dries fast, routes were bone dry two days after rain. Top of routes can be achieved by walking back along Zap crack trail south and cutting towards the cliff. 20m rap off a tree brings you to the ledge where the routes a top out. A short rap off a tree will bring you to the anchors.
