Looking down from under the second roof at Kip Hen...


Description 

For exact approach look in Rock Climbs of Southwest Utah by T. Goss. Start is behind a bush, just right of a dihedral. 5.9 climbing up varnished edges to crux over the first roof.

Excellent belay station for second pitch, however significant rope drag over the first roof for the second ascender. Second pitch is a little more crimpy with a tougher second roof crux. Two rappels down with single rope or walk off if you want a long hike down.


Protection 

quickdraws...13 should do.

this is a stellar route. very easy climbing with 2 roof cruxes. the first roof wigged me out because it isnt part of the wall itself. its suspended. i kept imagining it falling apart on us.
