Keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment
|

Description A beautiful slab climb located up and left of "Turkey Foot Crack" on Sunshine Wall. Follow the line of bolts up the steep slab gaining a rest near the third bolt. Steep slab climbing and small crimps lie ahead. Fight you way past the last bolt and reach a crack were things mellow out. Place a #2-friend and rest a good ledge and the anchor. It is excellent slab and face climbing on a clean piece of rock.
Protection Six bolts, yellow Aliens and a #2 Friend are the gear for this single pitch route. You can rap-off a single pition and a fixed #3 RP.

| Careful there, Bob, the anti's will start huddling up. By the way, congrats on Philly doing better than the Chiefs. Maybe next year.... |
