Holey Wars - in the crux moves.

Description 

Amazing route on some of the best rock in the Gorge. It's climbing minimalism at it's best. Long moves on very thin holds. There are two rests before the last crux section which climbs through a mono - then you gotta hold on for the pump until the end. Powerful and techy.


Location 

At the Mothership Cliff on the smooth face to the right of Piranha


Protection 

Bolted

Best hard route in the gorge. Sustained crimping on bullet rock. Thanks Todd G. for hooking this thing up.
