BETA PHOTO: Route topo for the South Arete of the Shark's Fin


Description 

A steep start past three tightly-spaced bolts leads to easier climbing up the arete.

Expect lots of loose rock and marginal holds--this route might be quite hard when it cleans up.


Location 

Directly opposite the famous 5.7 arete.


Protection 

7 bolts to 2-bolt anchor with Mussy Hooks.
