Trash Compactor

5.5, Trad, TR,  Avg: 2 from 2 votes
FA: Doug Reed (free solo)
N Carolina > 3. Piedmont Region > Crowders Mountain > Main Climbing A… > 13. Two Pitch Wall

Description

Short and sweet. Great warm-up for this wall/area. Eats up gear through-out the climb and has some interesting climbing. Not tricky gear by Crowders standards. Could be a great top-rope route along with The Intimidator(5.8).

Location

Cliff right of The Intimidator (5.8). Locate the two off-widths next to each other. The one on the right is Trash Compactor(5.5).

Protection

Traditional Rack -(BD#.3-#4), set of nuts,

Natural Anchor (I used a big horizontal but there were plenty of other options).
