Count Chalkula

5.10a, Sport, 55 ft (17 m),  Avg: 2 from 70 votes

Arkansas > North-Central A… > Horseshoe Canyo… > N Side > N Forty Routes

Description

The crux comes low at an overhanging section and is followed by much easier climbing to the top.

Location

After walking along the North Forty trail for awile, you will come to an overhanging, colorful, and undercut wall. Go uphill from this wall (Big Top is on this overhanging wall) past two dihedrals. Count Chalkula is the first bolted climb to the right of the second dihedral.

Protection

Five bolts to a two bolt anchor.

Here I am getting into the easier climbing. I found the climbing through the first two bolts to be closer to the book's rating of 10b

[Hide Comment] Crux start to a 5.7 walk to the anchors. The start is engaging enough to make the climb worthwhile (unless you want a consistent route). Jan 8, 2023
