Pocket Protector 5.10c


Description 

Best pocket route of its grade in Southern Arizona, bar-none. The hardest part about this route is settling on which jugs to use. A low crux gives way to shamefully large pockets on the upper face. Originally lead ground-up on gear.


Location 

East Face of Trundle Pinnacle. The route starts in the overhanging corner on the left side of the wall.


Protection 

Here's your chance to try out those tricams, Aliens, nuts,and TCU's to 2" in pockets. Or...

6 bolts + shared anchor with Wing Development. A hand-sized cam will protect the climbing to the first bolt or use a stick-clip.

Ohhhh yeah. The best, and only, warm up route for the area. I might have climbed this route almost 10 times, and it's keeps getting more and more fun!!!! If your climbing at this grade, I would recommend this route highly.
