Description

Slab climbing over two short roofs with very thin gear.

Slab your way up to the lower roof placing all the gear you can. (I placed a grey alien about halfway up to the roof and a small nut slotted behind a odd flake under the roof.) Pull the roof using a some rounded edges. After pulling up, there is a slot for another small nut. Continue up to a good ledge with bomber gear. Work up and slightly right past a rail then more good gear. Thin moves but solid moves lead towards the second roof. Once at the roof, another gear placement can be found. Pull the roof and make a quick dash to the anchors.

This route can easily be TR'ed after leading W.R., but it's also a very sastifying lead.

Location

To the right of Winters Respite. You will be climbing the arete edge and face to the right of W.R. climbing past two roofs/overlaps. Starts about 15 feet to the right.

Protection

Black - Red Alien, small nuts, 1.5 Friend. This route shares rap rings with Winters Respite.
