Description 

I am suprised this one isn't in the database. The old approach (grappling up the barb wire fence dumped one close to the routes in the area loosely described as the "Fence Area".

As sport climb goes this one was pretty sporty. I wasn't using a clip stick in those days, so I thought getting to the first clip was pretty bold.
This was around '93 so things might have changed a bit.

Cool route! Maybe KT or RW, or RA can supply some FA info.


Location 

Fence Area (NTM). In same area as Electrocuticles.


Protection 

3 bolts; scary getting to first one (c. '93?).

A very bouldery start leads to fun movement up the pillar. If you want to keep it fun overall I would suggest stick clipping the 2nd bolt and not risking a potential broken ankle... but after all they're your ankles. BA

Guy Lords and I did this one, about 1991 or maybe early '92. People where getting hurt on it, so someone else added the second bolt much later.
