Follow existing trails and climb using removable protection or in climbing areas with existing approved fixed anchors or bolts. Development of any new rock climbing, bouldering or rappelling areas and development of any climbing routes involving the permanent installation of new fixed anchors or new trail construction requires prior Forest Service authorization.
Description
Now 20% more free! The "direct" start adds three bolts and maybe 30 moves of awesome moderate bouldering on killer sculpted pockets up to a reachy crimp section before joining the already-classic original route. These moves are not harder than the upper crux (but not much easier either), but certainly add some fatigue to a route that is a solid 13a. The resulting route has three distinct crux sections separated by two OK shakes, requiring a combination of power, technique and stamina.
