BETA PHOTO: Blast climbs up just left of the arete in the pic ...


Description 

Short climb on mediocre rock. Starts high off a boulder at the base.

Climbs the slightly overhanging wall on small sharp-edged blocks and jugs for a couple bolts. Most of the route is littered with great holds, except at the very end when you want to sling the anchor. The route is probably more like .10+, but I spent a bit of time wanking around up top trying to figure out how to best get at the anchors, so I'll go with the guide on this one and call it .11a.

Stick to the bolt line as best you can, the rock farther to the right is quite bad.


Location 

Scramble up the boulder next to the far right side of the wall until you can make the first clip. Then go up.


Protection 

4 bolts to 2 open shuts.
