Comments: I am a bit shorter and thought that 11b was accurate. Some added height would have made it much easier (I couldn't reach the crimp off to the side of the roof that was really good). So my suggestion...if you are tall, you may find this slightly easier than 11b.

Comments: I think crack ratings are very dependent on hand size. I too thought it was a bit harder than 5.9+.

Comments: I took a #6 Camalot, and it worked great in the offwidth section.

Comments: This is a decent climb. The gear near the bottom is good, but is a bit sparse at the top. Climbing at the top becomes much easier. I used the crack for my feet, and the crimps on the face above the crack at the crux! Bolted anchor at the top.

Comments: Good route. If you have small hands, watch out...the top section becomes an off-hands, not quite fists crack. Small gear at the bottom.

Comments: I found the climbing on this route to be really awkward, and the holds slippery. I didn't really enjoy it.

Comments: I agree...I thought pitch 1 was harder than pitch 2. I also thought that most of the crux moves of pitch 2 were near the bolts, and didn't need to place any extra gear on pitch 2. I followed pitch 1, but found the roof to be difficult and VERY AWKWARD. Pitch 2 was definitely worth pulling the ugly roof though.

Comments: The difficulty of this route depends on how you climb it. Traverse a bit left of the 2nd bolt for a 5.8 climb, or go right, for a harder 5.9 or 5.10 version.

Comments: Great Route!!! Balancy, with a great variety of moves. I would recommend a mantle of some sorts to get past the crux!

Location: UT : Moab Area : Indian Creek : Supercrack Buttress : Incredible Hand Crack (5.10c)
By: Christina kalb When: May 21, 2008 | view comment >> |
Comments: I have small hands, and the crack was shaky hands or off hands for me. I could not get a good jam over the roof at all. I would give this a solid 5.10 rating. Still a great route though

Comments: Bring slings if you plan to clip every bolt. Bolts zigzag up this route resulting in serious rope drag
