Climber pulling through the roof on Blackfoot.

Description 

A very cool route that has high quality gymnastic moves. These moves start down low for short people while tall people are able to reach the starting holds. The start is considered the crux with thin sharp crimps and slick feet. Maintaining balance while moving up the steep face on the sharp holds is the problem. 40 feet off the deck you arrive at a large 5-6 foot roof. The roof has good jug holds that are challenging while your feet cut loose and your pumped. Pull the roof moves and continue up steep pockets to the anchor.

Location 

First route on the roof about 10 feet right of Itchy Flutterby.

Protection 

Bolts are visible to a two bolt anchor
