Deploy the Aliens! - CC at the crux. Photo by Be...


Description 

This route begins left of Fire Or Retire in thin discontinuous cracks. The left crack widens to a finger / hand crack and ends in a large depression. Unprotected 5.10 face climbing leads to a two bolt anchor / rappel station. Crux moves off the deck and at the top.


Protection 

Very small TCU's (#00 - #1) or brass down low. Medium cams in the hand crack and a #3 TCU before the runout finish. Two bolt anchor on top.

An alternative (and better protected) finish you can do is to cut right and top out via Fire Or Retire. A small tricam is handy for the direct finish and although runout the hardest moves come not far above your gear.
