The first bolt at the start of Fingerrip can be se...


Description 

A couple of bolts lead past tricky climbing to a finishing manlte move. The climb is slippery and the crux down low. Be solid at the grade if leading so you don't pitch before you make the first clip.


Location 

Starts on the far left side of a large ledge on the Main Wall. Right of The Crack of Dust, scramble up to this ledge (10'). The climb starts just left of The Owl Crack. Consider using it as an approach pitch for Never Intended (5.10b).


Protection 

A couple of quickdraws for the lower section. The first clip is kinda high and hard to reach. Be careful. Some gear is likely to be found before the mantle. Had to bail right due to a TR in the way, so I can't say exactly what the gear will be.
