Tom Perkins on the FA.

D'Antonio Collection.



Description 

A short, power crux at the start leads to a brief but incredible face on made to order in cuts followed by a one move wonder pull out a bulge at 2/3 height that leads to the anchor. Doesn't get much better then this for the grade at Independence Pass.


Location 

Roughly the middle of the Olympic Wall as you walk West to East slightly downhill and then back up spot a large boulder detached from the wall and a 30' low angle slab just to the left of the boulder that leads to the base of the cliff. The route starts on over hanging rock just to the left of a shady alcove. The first clip is from a large flat jug just below the bolt.


Protection 

Quickdraws.
