[Hide Comment] Anyone have details about the (new?) route on the left side of this wall, looks like it is 6 bolts or so and goes through bulges left of gator starting at the constriction of the belay ledge/area. Perhaps this is Moonwalk 5.11-? Apr 27, 2021

[Hide Comment] I spoke with the FA on that route a few months ago, I believe he called it Orange Crush 10d. I don't remember the bolt count but it goes quite high, much longer than the other routes on this wall. I think he intended the belayer to stand on the large boulder off the wall, but mine stood at the trail off to the side. The route is sweet, a good mix of styles including a 'beached whale' move w/ great friction but no actual holds. Jump on it! May 11, 2021
[Hide Comment] Max is correct on Orange Crush. And if you want the most up-to-date information on new routes, consider using the rakkup app. Proceeds from guide book sales go to the Dallas Kloke memorial fund and help us replace old bolts and put up new routes. Thanks! May 31, 2021
