Scott halfway out the P3 roof.


Description 

Gladiator is a fun climb with a great roof crack on the last pitch. There is plenty of lichen in this area but the climbing tends to be pretty clean where it matters.

P1: Splitter 5.8 wide-hands to a short loose section to a belay at a tree. This is a short pitch and is easily linked with p2.

P2: A fun .10c thin crack leads to a two bolt anchor.

P3: The goods. Climb a corner to the start of the roof. Using hand and fist jams work your way through the roof .11b. After the roof step right to a finger crack and head to the top.


Protection 

Rack up to a #4 Camalot and Doubles in hand sizes to #3 Camalot for the roof.
