Mission Control


Description 

This is a great climb. The crux is at the top through the last three bolts where it gets pretty vertical. This is a great climb for beginners because the first 5 bolts are probably in the 5.6-5.7 range, plus you can skip the last 3 bolts by heading to the right after the 5th bolt and clipping in to the "Beautiful" rap station.


Location 

About 15 feet to the right of Lunch rock. You can free solo up the 15 foot face or 4th class around the side to the right.


Protection 

8 bolts to rap station.

I think Chris Hubbard was FA. I also think this is the newest bolted line at the Gorge, 2004 or so. I have heard the intent was to create a good line for beginning leaders.
