Description
Hammer of Thor heads up from the second bolt (not including the pin at the start) of Velvet Elvis. The climbing is nothing to write home about; Velvet Elvis and the nearby Hunka Hunka Burnin' Love are both better routes. My partner and I both felt that this climb was more difficult than the crux of Velvet Elvis (which is 11a), but it may have been that we were tired and hot.
Rap off the last bolt or scramble easily up to the anchor above Velvet Elvis (from which, incidentally, you can rap to the ground with a 70m rope - a 60m is likely to get you down in one rap as well).
