BETA PHOTO: Upper half of Belly of the Whale


Description 

Crux is moving past the second bolt, which is at waist hight during the crux. The rest of the climb is easy. First bolt is pretty high off of the ground. There is much chalk slightly to the left of the line which can be misleading. Climb starts directly below the first bolt.


Location 

Impact zone left, through the tunnel and across the ledge to far side, on right side of alcove.


Protection 

4 bolts to anchors
