Description

Start by climbing up the steep slab on orange rock to reach the overhang. Get a good shake and punch it to pull the lip (crux). There's a good trick kneebar beta that really makes this not so tough. Gain a stance above the roof and follow positive runnels to the end. Fun!

Location

Just to the left of Mayhem. On the far right side of the crag.

Protection

7 bolts, Metolius Rap Hangers.

[Hide Comment] With a left knee bar, reaching up real high with the left hand to a hold with zero chalk on it, this legit feels like a very soft 12a. I'd say 11d even, but I think it's technical and interesting enough to give it the 12a. Mar 26, 2023
