Description
One of the Seasons routes, obviously, the Winter is considered by many to be a testpiece for 5.10. The crux is the thin corner, but you'll already have had to overcome a few challenges before you get there.
P1: Start below an overhanging right-facing corner ~15' right of Bold-Ville. Make your way up the corner and aim for the fixed tat above. A more secure, modern two-bolt anchor is at the back of the ledge above and to the right.
P2: Continue up the corner to stance below a large hanging right facing corner with a roof. Pull the roof to a fixed anchor. Use caution both with the state of the anchor and the length of the lower.
