Description
You've probably heard of this route. And for good reason. It's truly incredible.
Choose your own adventure start:
1. 11+, To the left of the little cave, climb up some orange stone and around an arete onto a beautiful blue face and finish up and right to a 2 bolt anchor at a stance.
2. Chimney corner (unprotected) to a bolted belay by the trees.
3. 11+ Climb the pillar right of the cave to a nice full on ledge (Sky Club).
Launch from either belay onto the stunning blue headwall. Edge your way to the left side of the slash and follow it up and right through some harder terrain to a memorable runnel finish. Absolutely stellar climbing on world class stone.
It is possible to link the full thing - extend and back clean...and still be prepared to clip a very heavy rope when you're a little pumped.
