Description 

The namesake of Lieback Rock.

Lieback up a right facing rail where the rock splits from pink to grey. Get up to a finger pocket undercling. Follow undercling flake around right and then finish up the seam to the top.

Classic. Feels more like an actual trad route than a boulder since it is so long and varied. Some start on the right side of the rail for added difficulty.


Location 

Center to rigt side of Lieback Rock.


Protection 

Pad and somebody to move it. Crux is start up to undercling so a pad at the start only is helpful.

I heard long ago that the undercling/pocket thing is actually a manufactured hold: someone in the 70's smashed it out of the flake with a hammer. Its possible to complete the problem without using it. For maximum style points, step back left above the lip of the overhang and top out on slab.

Why is this marked a 'trad' route?
