Description

Off the ledge climb the wide crack and mantel right. Move up staying right to clip your bolt. Scratch your head for a while then shrug your shoulders and let it rip! It was very interesting to figure out how to get in to the corner. It's quite a grovel to get started. You will be happy to have the lone bolt at the crux. I placed a piece a couple feet up from the bolt too. Wedge in to the corner and chimney up utilizing the crack for jams and solid protection. REALLY fun climbing after the brutal crux.

I cleaned out all the green stuff and spiders that were living in the corner so now is your time to get on it!

Location

The right hand corner of the "triple corners". Look for the bolt and tight corner above.

Protection

1 bolt and regular rack. Build an anchor or head up to the tree anchor above.

[Hide Comment] really tough crux and right side is really lose so couldn't use it. had to do some sort of gaston move with a crimp/finger crack. the crack is pretty dirty again so bring your nut tool. Jul 22, 2014

[Hide Comment] Don't think anyone has done this since Ladd's 5.10 challenge ascent. I did lots of gardening and had a blast! A very worthwhile climb Sep 24, 2017

[Hide Comment] Saw the crack today and it didn't look grubby at all. Was really bummed I forgot my rack. Will climb it next time and get some photos! Aug 14, 2022
