Crack of Doom.

Add Photo  Add Comment    Printer View

Description 

Climb tall, steep crack. Tight hands to really small fingers. Really Proud!


Location 

This boulder sits about 40ft to the north of the Massive Vertigo boulder. It faces downhill and it's pretty obvious when you see it.


Protection 

Lots of pads and spotters.

We cleaned this up today, but no sends. It's a very hard line. IMO one of the best crack problems at the lake.

Agreed. Super cool movement, super defined crux. Stoked!

Nic, if it had any face holds it wouldn't be so hard. This thing is all body tension, and terrible finger locks.

Nic. You should send it. It may just need someone who knows there way around the cracks...

I think it is 7+ for sure. V4ish into a stopper crux finger lock and match.

Travis Melin almost did this the other day. I think if we had maybe 4 more pads to protect the drop he would have. I'm glad he didn't really go for it though, it could have been ugly. I got pretty high up on it too with a different sequence but it felt weird for sure. Good fun. Ian

It looked to me that this was going to finish left over the "pit of doom", is that where you guys are going?

Maybe it would take some gear in the crack ;)

Cool line. Need some good temps to make that pinch feel better and I think it goes.
