Description
This fun line climbs in and out of one of the largest pods on the southern side of the upper narrows.
Start by padding up a thin slab past a couple of bolts (somewhat insecure and hard to read, stick clipping is recommended as the holds can get dusty) and establish yourself at the base of the large pod. Stem your way up the pod, avoiding a few loose holds, to reach a clip in the underbelly of the cave (long draw useful). Catch a sweet rest at the apex of the cave, using bomber jams to study the upper section. Clip the first fixed draw, extract yourself form the pod and launch up the lightning bolt crack feature, eventually tackling a final bulging section to reach the chains.
An alternative lines cuts right from the pod (Thunder Ball).
Please clarify that this original line ended on the chains of Walk the Plank. Will help the many who are trying t discern. It was that way for many years before I cleaned the rock and debris and added bolts that is now the right-side variation
