Description Similar to neighboring Wind Walker, Liberty Bell is an excellent long route on great rock. The bouldery start (tougher than the similar moves on Wind Walker) is the crux.
A tough and awkward overhanging start leads to well-protected easier face climbing through a crack system, past a pine tree, to the top.
Location Starts just right of Wind Walker.
Protection Medium gear (cams, tricams, nuts). Bolted anchor.

| The start REALLY detracts from the overall experience on this thing. ..not because it's extremely hard...just unpleasant. That said...the rest of the route makes that bit of thrutching down low absolutley worth it. Amazingly fun up high!
I rate the start 5.stupid and the rest 4 Star 5.7 |

| Paul pretty much nailed the description on this one. Just do the moves coming out of the roof, you're not missing anything, there's not a better way to do it, it's just that unpleasant. After that it's world class climbing. |
