Dan at the crux of Dead Man Chalking (5.10b).


Description 

This route is found on the arete just left of Tombstone Shadow (5.10a) and across from Firepower (5.10d); Shoot At Will (5.8) is located around the corner to the left.

Bouldery moves at the start gain the arete where fun and sometimes balancy moves lead up and right to anchors shared with Tombstone Shadow.


Protection 

5 bolts, chain anchor (shared with Tombstone Shadow)

This was a fun and somewhat heady lead but the holds kept sending me around the arete. Either way, worth doing.
