Description

This is in the el parasol roof. The start is pictured, link into Midwest Dream. The big move on Midwest Dream is a bit heady, do be careful.

Variations: 

Precision is Power: Start the same as insidious, and upon reaching the arete, climb straight up the slab - FA ICB 09/2014

Insidious SDS (Low end 12): From two sidepull/underclings, pull your butt off the ground and make a powerful move into the start of Insidious and finish out that climb - FA J Spoerl 10/2021

Precision is Power SDS (low end 11): Start for Insidious SDS and finish as for Precision is Power - FA J Spoerl 5/2022

Location

In the el parasol roof just above the fat raccoon boulder.

Protection

Pads, 4 is doable.

[Hide Comment] I did a sit into this problem: from two sidepull/underclings, pull off the ground, then make a hard move to join insidious. Nov 15, 2021
