Lazy Arch

5.7, Trad, 50 ft (15 m),  Avg: 2.5 from 6 votes
FA: Jerry Cagle
Arkansas > North-Central A… > Sam's Throne &… > Sam's Throne > 7. The Throne > White Trash Wall

Description

Climb a crack with face holds up to a ledge at about 20 ft. Plug in a #2bd in the weird hole/pocket. Move left and cruise up the face roughly 10 ft. left of the outside corner. There is one spot between the ledge and the top that accepts gear. Don't miss it. Move left to anchors which is 2 bolts with only 1 hanger. The nut is on the other bolt so you can use a wire. Walk right to another set of anchors to rappel. Nice little route with a heady finish.

Location

Start this climb down to the left of White Trash on the same face about 10 ft right of the outside corner at a conspicuous crack that leads to a ledge.

Protection

Small to medium cams. (1) #2 camalot. Anchors for belaying on the left and anchors for rappelling on the right.

[Hide Comment] I think this was originally called "Smorgasbord". Does this description fit the location? " The center crack on the left end of the red wall on the far end of the throne (White Trash Wall, around the corner?). Up the crack to the ledge then around the corner & up the face to the top. No pro on the upper section." All I had in those days was stoppers and hexes... Feb 10, 2020

[Hide Comment] The ARCC installed a new bolt anchor at the top of the head wall of this climb just before the top ledge. This is very helpful in reducing rope drag. Jan 22, 2023
