Description
This a quality route that meanders up the face. Once off the ground, pull a few moves on suspect rock. After this, the quality improves to really fun pulling on comfortable pockets. Pull the small roof and meander slightly right to the anchors.
Location
Walk a couple hundred yards past the Bulge Wall. This is the first route you encounter walking up to the Phenomenology Wall. It is the right-most route, next to
Abscessed Words To Climb.
Protection
9 bolts, 2 bolt anchor.
[Hide Photo] The route works up the left of the crack then work right at the top.

Big runouts on rap bolted routes are lame. That said, this is a rad climb with some great pocket pulling. An additional bolt, some cleaning at the bottom and this thing would easily be three stars. Mar 20, 2013

Seems like a theme I see a lot at Shelf. True bolt line is harder than the rating, climbing two feet to the side is easier than the rating. Apr 26, 2021
