Description Suggest change

The Thunderthief 5.9 ** 95-180' F (9-17b)

Climb the face left of the large crack/chimney to the mid point anchors on the big ledge or all the way to the top - be careful of rope drag on the upper section. Also be careful, apparently there is a snake den right at the base, as well as a bunch of poison ivy. Can also be done as 2 pitches;

P1 - 5.8+ ** 95' F (9b) - Begin at the edge of the vertical crack and traverse left over broken rock, then climb directly up to the large ledge with the 2 chain anchors.

P2 - 5.9 ** 85' F (7b) - Continue up the face above to the high crux and 2 bolt anchors on top. Best to rappel and not lower from top chain anchors.

Location Suggest change

Begin just left of the large vertical crack.

Protection Suggest change

fixed - 17 bolts, a couple of medium cam placements are possible but not essential between bolts. Rap anchors at the top and mid-level
