[Hide Comment] This is a fun, varied route. From the crack start you mantle onto the ledge to begin the face climbing. Pull through pockets, underclings and jugs on the vertical face. The overhung section greets you on the run from the last draw to the anchors. Try to keep your cool on the finishing jugs long enough to clip the anchors or else you're going for a ride...

[Hide Comment] Does the crack have bolts? Or do we need to place some gear to protect? It's hard to tell from this one picture. Thanks! Feb 25, 2020

[Hide Comment] One of the best 10's i did. Stellar. Bolts are a little spaced, but all falls are safe. (After clipping the second bolt) Thank you for equipping this. Mar 28, 2024
