Description
Three days of bolting, hammering, prying, scraping and brushing have yielded a fairly high-quality route between "Cherry Pickin'" and "Branching Out". The route starts on the typical Jemez grit and launches into cleaner and steeper dark rock on a variety of holds (with many gastons). A good rest precedes an interesting last crux (heel hook?).
Location
Between "Cherry Pickin'" and "Branching Out". 11+ written in chalk at the base.
This is a terrific addition to Area 37, and is in the running for best route there. The moves are sustained, fun, and interesting, and the route climbs some of the best rock at the crag. Big kudos to the FA team for their cleaning efforts. I look forward to working on this route. Hopefully it doesn't kick my butt quite as bad next time!
