Description
The "Wabash Line" is a mythical rail line that appears when a hobo needs it most and can take them anywhere they want to go. Hopefully to Sendtown. This somewhat tricky and compact route features great holds and meanders up some of the steeper rock at Hobo. All aboard!
Start to the left of Road Sister. Nimble your way through a thankfully short chossy section at the start. Check your holds. After that the rock and the climbing both get tremendously better as the wall gets steeper. Follow the faint dihedral executing intriguing off balance layback moves. Shuffle left to some bigger holds and then punch it over the bulge.
like it’s neighbors on this wall, the route stays in the shade until midday.
You can lower off Road Sister to access the anchors for hanging draws or an easy TR.
