Description

Thin sustained crimps, cool movement, and intricate footwork lead up a steep line. Avoid the bailout left and stay on course through the last clip for full value. A two bolt variation to start adds to the fun; Snake Eyes comes in from the left, starting just right of Turkey Jerky, and pulls through two amazing huecos to clip the second bolt on Ghost.

The crux of the climb comes halfway through the route where the crimps are bit smaller and the feet become more smeary.

You can climb Ivy League for a warm up and hang draws on this while you lower.

Awesome route; however, there may now be a second crux around the second to last bolt. A fairly crucial foot hold broke off last Saturday (8/9/08). Should still go 11+ though.

Excellent work, Kirk. 4 stars. Unique sustained Eldo-esque face climbing. Tricky read.

Great Route! Very thin and tricky. Another small crimp pulled off near the last bolt, still goes at 11+.
