Pitch 1, Big Corner...actually not a bad pitch.


Description 

possible to lead the initial grunge 5.8pitch form the ground but preferred to rap in from Mars Attacks. Beautiful dihedral with finger locks and liebacking, crux is the endurance + a bit harder near the top, have fun!


Location 

located east of Mars Attacks (along rap from MA) and just right of Fear of a Red Planet


Protection 

easily top roped while descending Mars Attacks, otherwise a triple set of tcu's should get you up.

This was a fantastic climb that I recommend doing after climbing Mars Attacks. Less than vert corner that will be in the shade in the afternoon, is still tough and cruxes at the top. Various crack widths and some crimps on the face make this corner easier than your pure crack outing. The dirty first pitch didn't look worth doing at all.
