Description

Climb some very cool sloper features (same as bender), then pull over a bulge to a short section of vertical face climbing. This is a good route to just 'go for' as there are two distinct cruxes (11b and 11c), separated by a massive shake-out jug that you can get it all back on.

Location

Far left end of Staying Power Towers

Protection

7 bolts
