Heinous slabs.. one climber's nightmare is another...


Description 

Begin Telekinesis with a relatively mild section of interesting 12- climbing on edges and ledges until you reach a mini-roof and a precarious shake. Clip up before drifting a bit right through the roof and immediately engage in a desperate, extremely thin crux with very few hold options. Continue crimping on bullet, beautiful, green colored stone for what seems like 2-3 hours. This upper section eases up a little, but there are no rests (especially not for your calves).


Location 

Directly right of The Wasp.


Protection 

Quickdraws.

"...relatively mild section of interesting 12-..."

This statement and the look of this climb underlines how pushing the limits has taken this sport to an order of magnitude above what we used to even consider!
