Description Suggest change

Forbidden Fruit is marked by a very impressive 45-degree overhanging prow top out.

Climb the first four bolts of Grow A Pear and instead of following the chimney, start stemming up and out until you can reach a good enough hold to pull into the overhang. Most people don’t stem high enough. Trust the jug and let your feet cut wildly. Two more bolts and steep jugs (with a few long reaches) land you on a giant clipping jug above the chains.

It would be possible to exit the roof out left, but that would actually not be any easier; it is very dirty, mungy, and without any protection or anchors. So enjoy the overhang and one of the steepest routes around here.

Location Suggest change

Climb the first four bolts of Grow A Pear and head right to the overhanging prow.
