Description On the east face of Challenge, just south of a 25 foot ledge is a right-facing corner. Start in this corner, pop over and follow the bolts, continue up the face.
Protection Bring gear for an anchor, but it does have 3 bolts. You will still need some natural gear to protect the expanse beyone the bolts, but it is easier beyond the bolts.

| Don't forget the gear for the anchors. Cams were especially helpful for the anchor. |

| Fun route with interesting moves. You can place a small nut and/or a 00 TCU below the first bolt. Its somewhat tricky to that first bolt so I'd recommend having gear and a few medium size cams for above the bolts. Thanks for the anchor! |

| Fun route, it should get done more often. The guide says the bolts are weirdly placed. Not so much weirdly as just a bit on the reachy side. I am 5' 9 and I couldn't really clip off the obvious good holds. Just made it a bit heady. If your 6' no problem.
Thin climbing after the last bolt leads to jugs, good gear and the top. |
