"39 Steps".
Photo by Blitzo.



Description 

The route offers steep but positive climbing up the dike system with the added security of a wide crack/flare. Minimal protection is to be had, but the nature of the climb makes it feel secure. Gear belay and rap off bolts atop Rock Star/School Daze. Two stars out of five.


Location 

You'll find this short but enjoyable route on the south face about 30' right of Suffering Catfish. Look for a vertical dike system in the back of a chimney/flare.


Protection 

pro to 2.5"

The bolt anchors are down and to the left, they are useless if you want to setup a TR. Out right of the dike, about 15 feet, there is a spot where you can get a few pieces in, but you'll need at least a 30 foot cordellete. No need to bring any gear for the route with you just a quick draw a hidden cam is permanently stuck.

Didn't see any fixed gear. Thin cams protect the crux.
