Description

Slab on to the left of the onion. Stand start matched on a positive crimp and poor feet. Move up and use the left arete. Careful of the tree directly behind you. not sure if this had been done before but I am assuming so. Please update info if you know it and I will change FA/name.

Protection

one pad and a spotter to prevent falling into the tree

[Hide Comment] Sit start this one with your foot on the bottom of the arete. Not contrived and more moves equals more fun. Probably a three if done that way. Oct 31, 2010
