Description

LAWless and Free is a great face route with nice edges and crystals. Starting just right of the classic Spectrum crack, climb up and right to the fairly high first bolt (be careful!), then continue up and over some bulges and scoops past two more bolts to the top. Excellent!`

Location

Lost Bandana Wall, more or less in the middle, located just right of the straight-up crack that forms Spectrum.

Protection

Three bolts. Bolted anchor at the top (if it's not there, you can take some gear in the medium size range to set an anchor).

[Hide Comment] Nice route with options to clip the old bolts or the new bolts. One could even set up a hanging belay off clips one and two... Jan 2, 2021
