Description Suggest change

There is a lot of variety packed into this long pitch. An easy start, a roof to surmount, a long corner providing great stemming, a short but tricky bolt protected traverse and to finish off this test of endurance - a burly crack section. Watch out for rope drag.

It is very easy to break this route up into two pitches, each at about 25 meters in length. This would make the onsight less daunting, reduce rope drag and limit the length of a potential fall at the crux. There is a bolted rappel station located about 5 meters above and left of the roof if you choose this option. 

Location Suggest change

At the X Wall look for a big roof about 50 feet off the deck. The route starts just above a large spruce tree in the corner system below the roof.

Protection Suggest change

Standard rack to 3". Maybe double up from .5 to #1 camalots. One bolt protects a techy traverse. Bolted rappel stations get you to the ground.
