The hard part of Dirty Dancing - sticking the aret...

Description 

Starts on a scooped face to the right of a nice clean arete feature. Climb a couple moves up the face until you find a half pad crimp over the top of the first little micro roof. Set up and make a hard sideways slap left to the arete. After latching the sloping arete, make a beautiful series of hand matches/switches on the arete in order to bring your body to the other side and into a layback position. Now deadpoint up and left to a jug in the right angling crack above. Follow the crack up and right past a roof and a large chockstone then enjoy a few more fun moves to the top of the crack.

Location 

Across the creek and just a little downstream from Full Value, to the right of Liquid Nylon.

Protection 

Good landing
