Start of the climb


Description 

This is the furthest east climb on the upper wall. Steep and juggy, but not a hard climb. There is a climb above it (5.11b).


Protection 

2 bolts for the anchors, and 5 draws for the climb.

After clipping the anchors, the rope will want to find a slot in the top roof. This makes for mucho rope friction if your second prefers to toprope.

This route is really fun for the grade. Most sport routes in this grade range usually seem like afterthoughts. Does anyone know why the moderate to the left is so sparsely bolted?

Fun ! Can be run in one pitch with the upper part (11b I believe), although rope drag can be a problem. Watch for the slot that Lee mentioned, you can feel it eating through your rope when you lower.
