Description

Backwaters is a classic little romp up some big holds on the steepest part of the bulge. Start off of little crimps and move up and left to a breast like pinch hold. Move into the good pockets above and left of this, and left again to a very good, solid jug on the right side of the Giant Hollow Flake. Square up and toss straight up for a great finger bucket, then a good right hand hold over the lip.

Location

Middle of the wall directly right of the Giant Hollow Flake.
