Looking up Valiant Flail To No Avail (5.11b) - not...


Description 

Located on the right end of the Agony Arch Area, between Quake And Shake Flakes (5.10b) on the left and Fear The Smear (5.8) on the right.

Easy face climbing leads to the second bolt and a small stance where the difficulties begin - the crux is characterized by delicate friction on smooth rock with minimal handholds; once the third bolt is reached it becomes much easier.

A delicate and tricky crux sequence played out on superb rock make this a must do for those who enjoy slab climbing.


Protection 

4 bolts, chain anchors
