Getting ready to pounce just below the crux.


Description 

At first, it is easier than it looks, but don't get lulled into a false sense of security. It gets steeper and thinner as you approach the crux. **BETA ALERT** The crux is reachy and a hidden hold is key. Expect to turn purple at the stance below the crux while trying to figure this one out.


Location 

Between Bubbles & Booze and Mad Swiller. Third route from the left on the main wall. Rappel from a 2 chain anchor.


Protection 

6 gray bolts to a 2 chain anchor.

The anchors on this route are placed on a fin that is mostly disconnected from core part of the cliff. With the right ice conditions during, it's possible that the entire fin could become loose. I think that the chains on this route should be placed in a different location.

this is a must do. a spicy deadpoint marks the end of the crux for the virtically challenged.
