[Hide Comment] This climb is bad-ass! Very cool face and crack sections, climbs like a desert tower route but perhaps it was just the dust. Easier but not as clean as Fatal Attraction. The final roof at the top might be a heartbreaker after everything going up to it.
I was top-rope soloing, but I believe you'll want a #3 and perhaps a #4 for a lead go.
A 2-bolt anchor is at the top (shared with Fatal Attraction). No chains or tat on it. Apr 27, 2020
