BETA PHOTO: Overview of the popular routes


Description 

Jam the finger and off finger crack up to the two piton anchor. The second pitch could be combined with the first and both pitches eat up the medium sized nuts. Nice, stout grade and the best route on this wall by a long shot!


Location 

Start in the crack 10 or 15' right of Check Point Charlie or two cracks right of the Bee Pitch. This one diaganols at a different angle than the others and starts just before the gap in the cliffs as you cross over to Perserverence Bulge.


Protection 

Loads of medium nuts (especially the offsets), TCU's through #3 camalot, runners. Its kinda fun to dust off the tricams too.

The 1st pitch belay has some really cool relics to clip. I love the Forrest T-bar. What a cool route, love all the bomber nutz your get to place. Used almost 2 sets of medium nuts on the 1st pitch alone. The approach, the exposer, the position, doesn't get a whole lot better for BCC.
