Description Cool sandstone laybackey crack. Traditionally done as 3 pitches I'm told, but can be easily done in 2 with a longer rope. Solid trees and ledges for belay.
Location Obvious, slightly right arching crack on far climbers right of the wall. No fixed anchors, walk off climbers right, or skirt the ridge east and rap from the chains above the mitten. Could rap this line direct from the large trees if you care to leave some slings and rings.
Protection Standard rack, Small cams helpful.

| good route. P2 was the best by far. I went right on P3, which could have been harder. definitely felt harder than 5.7 to me to start, and had to run it out a little more than I was comfy with. 20-30 foot run out. after 30 feet it felt like 5.7. I would have wanted more big gear. I placed my Trango #9 on every pitch. Its between a 3 and 4 BD Camalot. I would have liked to have another big piece. |
