Description

Start below 25' corner. Make some technical moves to get to the corner. Climb the corner to a small roof. Move out left and over the roof to gain the bolted slab. Climb thin edges to the Seal's anchors. Very exciting route and can be TR'ed after having led the Seal.

Location

Directly below the Seal's P1 bolted anchor in a large right facing corner.

Protection

Single rack with small nuts and 2 bolts. It is worth headpointing or at least figuring out the small nut placements that protect the corner laybacking. They are blind very precise key hole placements that can easily be messed up.
