Starting up Sr. Verde.

Description 

An engaging route on a brilliant & unique slab of white stone. The rock is ultra-smooth, and relatively featureless, though enough rounded crimps exist to make the line go. The line is definitely squeezed in, but the line climbs independently and seems justified considering the unusual rock.

Easy moves lead up and right to a stance on the arete. Big cruxy moves work up along a shallow feature to another good stance on the left face. Above the break a crack appears allowing easier passage to a ledge and the anchor.

Location 

On the right-face of the dihedral right of "Untapped", this is the route that climbs the rounded prow left of a groove.

Protection 

Bolts to 2 BA.
