Description

To the right of the two big roof systems is a slightly, and continuously, overhanging wall properly called the Grid Wall with big block in the middle. Erection starts on the block and passes a small roof at 50 feet. Continuous, interesting climbing on pockets and edges. EE would probably get three stars in the Front Range, but even in AF its a good moderate on a crag with lots of things that are far from moderate.

Protection

Seven or eight draws and a rope.

[Hide Comment] The start is the hardest part on this one. Lots of great pockets with plently of slick feet. Keep fighting the pump til the next big rests and you'll bag this one in no time. Nov 2, 2009

[Hide Comment] This thing seems to be around 80-90 feet long and there are indeed 7-8 bolts; it is an excellent climb but maybe not the best choice for someone pushing this grade/that doesn't want to take huge falls. Jun 17, 2020
