Keith Beckley giving it hell on his first go.


Description 

"I'm Finished"

A beloved line that shares the start with False Prophet. Start at head height roof, and then enjoy good moderate climbing with decent gear along a large right facing dihedral. Clip the first bolt on that route at 50' just below the roof, then head left via jugs to a plank rest. Eye the line well, but be prepared for some serious cranking right off the bat through the roofs. From there, enjoy interesting slightly off balance moves through the vertical section. It should be painfully obvious when you have to turn it on again. Large moves lead you past amazing holds, and a variety of feet. Keeps after you until you clip the anchors...


Location

Congratulations JJ! I wanted to be the first to say so; it was awesome hearing your victory shouts this afternoon. What a line!

I concur. Great job JJ putting up and sending a route which compares in quality to the best pitches of that grade in Northern AZ (Joker, Mission to Mars). It's my privilege to have made the second ascent of this classic.
