Greyhound

5.12a, Sport, 50 ft (15 m),  Avg: 3.1 from 110 votes
FA: Gene Vallee
Arizona > Northern Arizona > Arizona Strip > Lime Kiln Canyon > Back Walls

Description

Techy corner climb. Stem your way up via any means necessary. Tough moves throughout the third to fourth bolt. Climbing lets up the higher you get.
Great fun, prep the calves as they will get pumped!

Location

Located at the far end of the grail in the alcove. Look for the obvious dihedral with bolts.

[Hide Comment] Crux is from bolts 4-6. The first bolt is too low to help, skip it. Jan 1, 2018

[Hide Comment] This route is really good and on perfect stone. Pockets, pinches, crimps, stemming, what more could you ask for? Dec 17, 2020
