Description
A long, thrilling, and sustained climb originally lead with no fixed hardware. Even with cleaning and the addition of several bolts, it is still a great experience for a solid trad leader.
Microskunks wanders up discontinuous weaknesses on the north face of Microskunk Tower. Start by climbing a thin crack on the right side of the face. The crack leads to series of bolts arching to the left. The short section of poor rock gives way to a great 2" crack in the middle of the face. Ascend the crack until it narrows and a bolt appears on your left. Traverse left at the bolt to an offwidth. Head up the offwidth until it ends, then move right to a final crack leading to the anchor.
