Might As Well Jump

5.10d, Sport, 45 ft (14 m),  Avg: 3.3 from 13 votes
FA: Olson Brothers?
Idaho > E Idaho > Darby Canyon

Description

The best route I've climbed at Darby. Doesn't look like much, but the climbing is excellent. Positive holds up steep rock characterize this climb.

Location

Walk right about 100 feet from where the main trail hits the wall. After passing a wide area without any routes (in 2007), this route will be the first route you come to. It climbs distinctly red rock, is vertical, and looks harder (and more rotten) then it climbs. The rock is very good and climbing excellent.

[Hide Comment] Can any of you regular Darby climbers figure out which route this is? Let me know and I'll edit it to the correct name.

Thanks May 31, 2017

[Hide Comment] Very fun times. That hold you're gunning for at the top crux is way better than expected. May 7, 2020
