Alaska > Fairbanks & Vic… > Grapefruit Rocks > E Grapefruit Rocks > Crackland

Description

This sport route is a great climb for the area. The guide book rates this climb at 5.10 and this might apply to the lower 1/3 of the route up to about the 3rd bolt. From the 4th bolt up to its overhanging bulge, and over, will test your constancy of crimp and mono pocket pulling strength; the route is a sandbag in my opinion. Excellent route, could be a classic!

Location

Obvious 3rd sport route if moving left to right down the length of the crag. Just to the left of Alaska Girls Do Crack. Route can be Tr'd from the top. Belay tree at top to belay partner down is recommended as the anchors are set down off the top of the crag a bit, or just lead AGDC and traverse over to anchors.

Protection

9 bolts. 2 fixed bolts with quick links.
