Fallen Angel

5.11c, Trad, 70 ft (21 m),  Avg: 2.7 from 3 votes
FA: Kenny Barker, 2004
Kentucky > Red River Gorge > Pendergrass-Mur… > Purgatory

Description

Obvious and beautiful thin, right leaning crack.

Climb through a sporty and engaging first half to a small ledge rest. The first half can be a bit runout as it becomes difficult to place thin gear in the upper portions because you are climbing to the left of the crack. I was scared on the onsight!

Rest on the ledge and enjoy the pumpy and super fun corner to the chains.

Location

Just left of the ramp that is the beginning of "Gluttony." Right of "Special Boy."

Protection

Tiny to hands.
