Kyle Martin on Ankle Breaker.


Description 

From the water, mantle up onto a small shelf. Two finger-width cracks wind up the route. Work back and forth between these, and be prepared for lots of right-leaning holds. Lots of big-toe-sized holds for feet.


Location 

About 15 minutes up Potash Road, past all the Wall Street classics. Watch for the Petroglyphs sign and opening on the road shoulder.


Protection 

Push away from the wall as you fall. First Ascentionist Kyle Martin nearly broke his ankle on this route by hitting his ankle on a submerged rock close to the boulder face.
