1st crux


Description 

Thought-provoking and sustained 5.9+ that earns its plus rating around two thirds of the way up at a balance/slab crux. Avoid the urge to veer towards the easier chossy left side around the third bolt. Very well bolted with chain anchors.


Location 

Bolted face just left of the obvious crack (Cracker Jack).


Protection 

bolts, chain anchors

Totally! Great Climb. I would agree. Dont cheat yourself... There is a good dedicated move to the right that you'll do, and then thank yourself that you did!
Great finish as well!

Really great route - thoroughly enjoyed it and was actually a bit giddy afterwards. Fun somewhat blind moves to good stances.
