As for all Hellgate areas

Description 

If you've never been to the Hellgate before, or if you're new to Limestone climbing, this is a good place to warm up. The first bolt is under a small roof just right of the corner. The next bolt is 20 feet above and to the right on the arete. The last bolt is on the other side of the arete, so you can't see it until you're there.


Location 

Look for the spire in the middle of the South face of Tower 1. Find the corner beneath the spire and look to your right. What the Hell climbs the short West face along the arete.


Protection 

3 bolts to chains. I placed a blue TCU between the first and second bolts.

I looked for this route and found one in the same area that had 10 bolts and isn't listed here unless this is the same route with more bolts added.

I'm trying to figure out which route I climbed - thanks
