Description
A seriously cool climb on awesome rock. Every type of hold on this route. Really fun. This is the route with the obvious crack/flake at 2/3's up. Amazingly fun route for 5.8 at Mt. C.
If you look up and left from the anchor you will see another set of double bolts from which you can top rope the line between Low Pull and this route. That line was not bolted as it would be a squeeze job.
Protection
5 Stainless Bolts + Double Mussy Anchor
This route was bolted solely for the purpose of allowing for the first ascent, and the first ascent information is posted here solely to document the history of the first ascent. No person should read this posting with the assumption that this route or the fixed gear left behind is safe in any way or otherwise appropriate to allow for safe subsequent ascents. Climbing is dangerous and should only be done with the appropriate training and risk management practices that include providing for the climber’s own safety. Attempting to climb this route as described above or by any other means or methods could result in injury or death.
