Description Suggest change

One of the coveted Top 100, Tai Fighter is a classic and is highly recommended.

Start matched on a shelf on the left side of the arete. Follow the arete to a fun top out, using a combination of crimps, pinches, slopers, and heel hooks.

Location Suggest change

Visible as a pointed prow from the bridge, the Tai Fighter boulder is approached by either following the trail around to the right over a short set of stairs, or by scrambling left and up from the bridge.

Protection Suggest change

Though you are never very high above the ground, Tai Fighter can be a bit scary because of the hole above the start and the sloping boulder below you. Most will want about three pads, and perhaps a spotter.
