The Bishop

5.7+, Trad, TR, 40 ft (12 m),  Avg: 3.1 from 10 votes
FA: unknown
Wisconsin > Baraboo Range > Devil's Lake > E Bluff 02 - E… > 09. Prayer Wall

Description

The crack that diagonals lower right to middle left. Classic Devils Lake edges with less than you'd like for your feet. It climbs a lot like the upper part of "Chicago".

You can stop at the shoulder where the crack ends, or continue up to the right. It's easier to find an anchor up higher, under the cedar.

Protection

Small to medium stoppers and a couple of cams in the 1-2 inch size.
