Description Very nice route. Lots of fun if your over 6'. Significantly harder if you're 5'4". Kind of run-out w/o a few pieces of trad gear.
Number 3 on the picture.
Protection Seven bolts (retrobolted) + 3 mid-sized Friends will get you to the chains.

| We top roped this over the weekend. I'd agree that the crux has definitely got to be harder for shorter people - maybe 11a for anyone under about 5' 8", 10d for everyone else ;-) Fun climb. |

| At 5'10", it was about an 8" lunge for the bucket edge off one foot. Maybe it was the rain.... Brian, at 6'2", said it was sort-of-static. |

| If you're a shorty, and don't want to do the lunge, you can get around it! |

| I always bring a couple of trad pieces to supplement the bolts on this one. A bit contrived but fun and very appropriately named. |

| There is a 5.9 variation that goes straight up from the second pin instead of traversing further left towards Casual Corner. Sling a flake, place a few RPs, then connect with the last two bolts of the red hangers on the bolted arete to the right. Top out between the chains on the normal line and the bolted arete. May be "R" rated, depends on your comfort level with marginal gear. |
