Description
Free to Choose follows one of the most obvious lines in the Fortress--2 pitches of airy and aesthetic arete climbing.
Pitch 1 (95 feet, 5.6/5.7) follows 9 bolts up a unique, 3-feet wide knife-blade arete. Cross the gully and belay from bolts.
Pitch 2 (85 feet, 5.8) follows 8 bolts up the ever-steepening arete to a dihedral and finishes on a ledge with bolts.
2-rappels with a 60-meter rope will get you down.
