Oblivious

V3+, Boulder, 20 ft (6 m),  Avg: 3 from 3 votes
FA: Kraig Decker
Minnesota > Duluth Area > S Hartley Riverside

Description

Super fun climb with the crux on the second half of the climb after you get the gaston pinch hold. Pretty tall and pretty scary, but a great landing is built. I did it solo since there really isn't room for a spotter anyways.

Location

SDS left of Gitch. Groupie. To the left of the crack with the crack not on. Using the crack is Rotten Carcass. Sit start on two big good holds with awkward feet and move up to crimp with right hand and then to sweet gaston pinch. Then figure out feet to move up and left to pinch and then some sidepulls. Top out has huge holds but still freaky.

Protection

Pad or Two.

[Hide Comment] Other people please get on this! I am super curious on what people think it goes at. The holds are good, but it's definitely a mind game kind of problem. Could be V2, could be V6??? May 6, 2011

[Hide Comment] Did this one again and it's for sure no harder than V3-4, just committing. May 29, 2011

[Hide Comment] not a physically hard climb but reary fun. Crux is getting a high right foot. did this with kraig and thought it was V5 but went back today and did it 5 or 6 times and feels more like a V4. Aug 5, 2011
