BETA PHOTO: Edge of the Sea


Description 

Edge of the Sea is an excellent climb on the Riptide Wall. It climbs up various cracks just right of an arete. Scramble up easy rock to a hand crack. Cruise up the crack (5.6ish) until it narrows to a thin finger crack. Climb through this (crux) and link it with many other small cracks more or less straight up to a ledge. Then use the anchors for Astroprojection.


Protection 

Standard Rack. Small to medium gear.

Edge of the Sea is different than all the other routes on this wall as it has much better hands. A nice change of pace.

a few fun moves, and as Nathan stated...a different flavor than most all of the other Parley's routes.
