Cake Walk

V1-2, Boulder, 12 ft (4 m),  Avg: 2.7 from 3 votes
FA: Jim R.
N Carolina > 3. Piedmont Region > Pilot Mountain > Grindstone Mini Wall…

Description

Crux is the start, the lower you are the harder. There is only one really good hold on the right above the crux and you have to bump to it, hence the difficulty with the lower start. Stay on the corner and reach for ledges. All holds are pretty big and easy to grab, just a little reachy. Top out to finish. V1 for taller people, V2 for shorter. Pretty fun though and on a beautiful piece of rock.

Location

Located about 80ft off the trail behind some laurels. This section of the wall is a piece of beautifully smooth feldspar with bands of pink and white quartz running through it.

Protection

Crashpads optional
