BETA PHOTO: 7 High Hopes 5.7


Description 

A juggy climb up an arete that looks harder than it is. The hardest part is getting above the first bolt, but it isn't difficult once you discover one of what Alanis Morrisette put her hand in.

The first part is vertical, followed by a ledge/set back, then a bit that is almost vertical past the last bolt, then low-angled to the anchors.


Location 

Located on the arete just right of the wide chimney found on the right side of the central area of PA's Mother that has the large roof. Or alternatively, the arete to the left of Regular Route.


Protection 

4 bolts to hanger-and-ring rap anchors. This could be toproped if you don't mind the nasty climb up and around PA's Mother and down to the anchors.

Good climb for beginners. Like the description says, it's not as hard as it looks. The anchors are a bit far back from the top, which makes toproping a little difficult.

Andy and I put this up together and called it, High Hopes.
