BETA PHOTO: Ghost Dance.


Description 

The route on the left side of the north face. From a good crimp, make a big move to a money pocket, and then another big move to the upper holds. A little sketchy up high, but just enough to make it even cooler. One of the best looking and best climbing problems in the front range.


Protection 

Pads.

Closer view of Ghost Dance. Notice the unnecessary amount of chalk smeared everywhere....this is before I even got to hop on.

Think it's a better problem (and V7) from the two poor crimps below the good right hand one. Best in the shade or in colder temps. Sweet problem.

Most likely V6 from the two starting crimps, and V4/5 if you stack pads to start higher.

Better problem and V6 from the crimps.

I'd argue that Ghost Dance from the razor crimp standing start is harder than Babyface, which is often considered a national standard for V7.

I believe it is all about pain tolerance!!! I go about 170 lbs., and I can't imagine having very many "go's" at this one!!! I have never been on Babyface, but I do think this is Very Stout for V6, IMHO.

If GD is not started from the two horizontal crimps (the crimp start), what is the alternate start? If it is from stacking pads, then is that really legit?
