Description

This is the hardest problem at the Anvils, to my knowledge. Start at the left edge of the enormous scooped face with a wide span. Make a huge throw to slopers on the block, then pull left with powerful shoulder moves to the left-facing lip and mantel.

Location

The steep uphill side of the Gendarme boulder. Begins at far right, just left of the large blank face.

Protection

Pads (a few would be nice) and attentive spotting.

[Hide Comment] This might be the best problem at the Anvils. A fun factor of 11 (10 point scale). Check out the video youtube.com/watch?v=1TryNos…. Mar 3, 2012
