Description
A fun, moderate, bolted, multi-pitch route on less-than-stellar quartzite. Snatch adds two pitches above the routes on the left side of The Jobsite.
P1 Climb any of the four right-most bolted routes on The Jobsites left side, clip the chains and keep climbing to the base of Snatch proper. Youll see hanger-and-ring anchors at the base of a wide dihedral with a black streak down it, just below a small bush. Approximately 75 feet.
P2 Make a tenuous couple of moves through some crumbly rock to the first bolt and then continue up through seven more bolts of better rock. The crux is a small overhang after the last bolt, then onto a ledge with the anchors. Approximately 80 feet.
P3 Follow the first three bolts, angling slightly left and then bear right a bit for the next couple of bolts. Pass to the right of a gnarled juniper and follow the last two bolts up a shallow trough. Continue in line with the final two bolts to the chains. Approximately 100 feet.
To belay the second up P3 youll probably want to extend from the chains a few feet to stand comfortably on a ledge.
Descend via three single-rope rappels.
