Description 

This route climbs the most obvious corner/crack system in the middle of the Lower Religion Wall. The route starts as fingers then opens to hands before mantling onto a flake. (The flake, while scary, has been jumped up and down on, beaten with a hammer, etc.) From here climb the awkward slot above to where the crack splits. The left finish is fingers in a corner and goes at 5.10+. The right finish climbs broken rock to a short hand crack through the limestone band to a two bolt rap anchor.


Location 

This route is basically in the middle of the Lower Religion Wall. To descend, rap from a two bolt anchor.

Just before the crux.  The foot holds on the left vanish and the good jams disappear too.  Almost slipped out of the slot.  The key.  Just do it.

Super fun. The crux is maneuvering through a narrow slot. Really awkward. I did it right side in. My partner did it left side in. If you run up this thing, definitely finish with Broken Arete.
