Details
fs.usda.gov/activity/dbnf/r… Follow existing trails and climb using removable protection or in climbing areas with existing approved fixed anchors or bolts. Development of any new rock climbing, bouldering or rappelling areas and development of any climbing routes involving the permanent installation of new fixed anchors or new trail construction requires prior Forest Service authorization.
Description
This climb is a little harder than it's nearby neighbors, and perhaps significantly so. More than pump is a factor here. The start feels quite hard and it took me a few tries (1994) to get going. Get a spotter and an attentive belayer at least until you clip the second bolt.
Like the nearby routes to the left, once you pass the overhang, the difficulty is finished.
Location
This climb is the rightmost of the 3 routes starting off of the shelf of rock to the right of a notch in the cliff. Refer to the description for Aquaduck Pocket.
Protection
6 bolts to a 2-bolt anchor
