Beautiful, stunning route on spectacular orange overhanging limestone.
Climbs up through some difficult reachy pulls on overhanging stone, culminating with a cruxy rightward traverse to some jugs.
Super continuous and pumpy.
Pictured on the cover of the King Climbers Guide book.
Location
On the far left side of the Thaiwand wall there is a little alcove with 4 single pitch lines. This is number 4 of the 4 lines
Protection
6 bolts to anchors. There was some rust on these bolts when I did this in Feb 2005 - very creepy since there is some significant fall potential and some hard climbing! I got a bit wigged out on this line. Any chance this has been rebolted since that time? My guide indicated this had last been rebolted in 1997, so it is due.
