Description
This is a 4-star line, for sure, but the quality of the rock is not on par. Still a worthy route.
An awesome #.75/#1 Camalot sized layback (wish it kept going) takes you to a crack in the face which splits off from the now wide corner. Definitely some looseness here and wedged blocks to yard (softly) on. Gently stuff yourself underneath the roof (#3 Camalot) and surf out left. Don't go over the falls! This tricky but cool move/rest sets you up to place Yellow Alien size pro which will protect as you undercling, jam and stretch for the wide crack of Arms Race and a welcome no hands, perfect knee lock rest. Cool layback and jamming continues to a junky manchor which is best bypassed to a set of Fixe rings out left (30M communal rap).
