Description

A really fun mixed route on the King formation. Start in corner with bolt, plug a few pieces, and move right to left-facing corner. Jam (!) through the crux on good gear and pull out roof via satisfying laybacks. Some face climbing past 2 bolts puts you at the anchor.

Location

On the King, 2 routes left of Fool's Gambit. Starts in a right-facing corner.

Protection

A few bolts, and a set of stoppers and doubles of cams from fingers to #2 BD and a single #3 BD will get you up with gear to spare.

[Hide Comment] Single rack of metolious small purple to large blue plus rack of nuts and several long draws did me right. The rock is questionable in places - I broke a foothold on the short traverse to the crack, so nuts may be particularly good on this one. At the roof I could reach up and place a little purple metolious and then run it to the bolt. Easier climbing but you would not want to blow the clip. Really fun moves! Oct 18, 2015
