Deadman's Corner

5.10c, Trad, 40 ft (12 m),  Avg: 3.5 from 21 votes
FA: unknown
California > Eastern Sierra > June Lake Area > June Lake Boul… > Deadman Summit > Deadman I > Center Block

Description

The route climbs the obvious corner on the right side of the main tower. A thin finger crack up a steep corner eases off in difficulty after 20' or so.

Since it is a crack and climbs like one, I let it keep the 10c rating, but for the boulderers out there it goes at V1.

Location

The route is between The Hole and the Bachar Face.

Protection

A bouldering pad is recommended as the landing is quite hard. It also leads quite well on gear with nuts and cams #.5 to #1. Gear anchor on top if top-roping. Walk off the top.
