Description 

Fight Club starts out in a stemming dihedral, then goes to funky, thin, slabby dihedral climbing. It is possible to exit out left onto the arete after the stemming corner. This makes the route a little contrived seeing as the crux comes right after the exit point. After about 35 feet of climbing it traverses into its neighbor The Constant Gardener. Either finish up with The Constant Gardener's hand fist crack or branch out left to finish on a fingers and tips crack. Both lead to the top of the formation.

Location 

This is 10 feet left of The Constant Gardener. It is distinguished by a beautiful, red dihedral.

Build an anchor. Walk off.

Protection 

A single set of cams 000 C3 Camalot to #4 Camalot. A single set of small offset wires, and 3-4 single length runners. Additionally hand-and fist-size cams and a cordelette for the anchor.
