Here's Ian setting the bomber fist jams. Not a gr...


Description 

A very fun and challenging route. Climb up to the roof, use hand jams to pull over the roof. Continue to the top of the crack using fists, and offwidth technique or any face features that can be found. I'd recommend taping as the rock can be kind of sharp.

  • RCM&W #45, p.43.


Location 

This route follows the prominent crack on the right end of this buttress.


Protection 

Large hexes and cams from #1-#4 or #5 (camalot), preferably with doubles of #4.

This is a great overhung hand and fist crack. It could be sewn up on lead with medium to big stuff. I recommend taping up since you are pulling a roof with jams.
