Here I Go Again

5.6, Trad, 70 ft (21 m),  Avg: 1 from 1 vote

New York > Adirondacks > G: Indian Lake… > Crane Mountain > Black Arches Wall

Description

Climb the small left-facing corner to its end, then continue up the face and outside corner to its left onto a flat-topped pinnacle. Climb the steep face directly above it (crux) to the top.
The route is currently quite dirty. The crux is not well-protected, though it is only one bouldery move followed by low-angle slab with good holds. Cleaned, with perhaps a bolt at the crux, this would be a decent route.

Location

40' right of E-Stim, 4' left of a 2' wide chimney, at a left-facing corner that tapers out about 20' up.

Protection

Standard Trad Rack; the pinnacle can be lassoed on top to offer some protection for the short face above, but a long cordalette is required.
