Description 

This route is on the clean face on the left side of Lost Wall. There are four or five routes on this face (not listed in the guidebooks). Unhinged climbs the hand crack to the right of a couple difficult routes that have a few old-style bolts. It leads into a chimney about 75 feet off the ground. This route has excellent hand, finger, and off-hand sizes. Unhinged is vertical and sustained for the grade. It takes great pro and the first pitch ends at an old two-bolt anchor with slings. Climb to the top or rap the first pitch with a 60m rope. This is a true mid-country gem.


Protection 

standard rack to 3" with emphasis on hand and thin-hand sizes.

This climb is one of the best and purest crack climbs on Mt. Lemmon. I'd walk out there again just to do this climb.
