BETA PHOTO: New Deal, 5.13d


Description 

Rarely does a route look entirely impossible, but typical of Cosgrove's routes, this one does. The climbing is very technical with miniscule slopers. The first 15 feet are 5.13a, then 5.12c for 2 bolts, then if that isn't enough, after the 7th bolt 60' up comes the 5.13+ crux. And just for some flavor, there is the Josh-typical 5.12a runout to the top. Better be strong for this super endurance route.


Location 

The middle of three bolted routes on the left face, a few hundred feet left of "ZZZZZ."


Protection 

8-9 bolts, anchors

Has this route been repeated? Bolts are camouflaged so it can be hard to see from the desert floor.

The first 5 bolts were put in on lead, with the balance being installed from the top.
