Daily Prayer

Description

This is the second route from the right on the Detox wall, and shares the top anchor and top three bolts with Betty Ford's Route (5.9).

Climb up fun, but hard face climbing for the first two bolts, and then into a much needed rest below a small roof. Pull the roof, and keep heading up the face through run out, but simple climbing until the climb meets up with Betty Ford's route, with which it shares the last 3 bolts.

The crux, depending on who you ask, is either pulling the roof, or clipping the second draw.

Protection

8 bolts to a 2 bolt top anchor, shared with Betty Ford's Route (5.9, 9 bolts).
