FA: Lou Lutz and Bob Chambers (1958)
Pennsylvania > Southeastern Lo… > Ralph Stover SP… > c. Neolithic Wall

Description

P1 - Climb the crack to a small overhang with an old pin. Step up through the notch in the ceiling to the large ledge (Neolithic Ledge). Belay at the bolted anchor.

P2 - Climb a left-facing corner to another ledge, then climb another corner to a crack and overhang. Step righ to bypass the overhang at the "H-shaped" cracks. This pitch is dirty and almost never done.

Starting in the easier crack 8 feet further right on P1 makes the climb 5.5.

Location

Begin at a crack 8 feet right of the left (west) side of Neolithic Rock (or at another crack 8 feet further right).

Protection

Standard Rack. PG.

[Hide Comment] Another better than thought of climb. Getting off the ground is the crux. Those moves might be harder than 5.6. May 10, 2022
