Description Slabby face climb just left of Silent Scream. Unlike Silent Scream just to the right, this section of Pixie Rock is almost completely unfeatured. This is a great climb to slap up a TR and get familiar with JT friction climbing. At the mid point, a crack system slants up and left. Depending on where you move up from the crack, the difficuly of this climb can change by a couple of grades.
The name Rythym Of The Heat comes from a Peter Gabriel song of the same name from his 1982 Security release.
Protection None - free solo or TR from bolts and large gear (long slings necessary)

| Hmmm...One of the better songs on Peter Gabriel's 'Security' album. |

| Pretty sure this is called Rhythm of the Heart, not Heat. Anyway, a climb that demands good balance and footwork, not brawn. A good toprope quickie. The mislabeled sign in front of the rock labels this route as Silent Scream |

| This is really a lot of fun. My partner and I did a variation of it that makes it slightly more interesting by going to the right of the dark patina once you hit the first horizontal crack. I don't know what it does to the grade when you do that, but it sure make you pay attention. Great fun! |
