Description Suggest change

This may be the most unique route at Crosier. It looks like an overhanging offwidth and squeeze chimney - the Harding Slot of Crosier, BUT slabbing, slopers, liebacking, stemming, and crimps. No offwidth or chimneying is required. It looks intimidating but climbs very nicely!

P1. 5.10c/d. Belay at a bolt at the base. Head up the slab to a thin crack out a roof. Take slopers up into the overhanging maw (height-dependent crux). Once established inside, make a blind clip out right. Head right out of the chimney under the chockstones, and climb flakes to the anchors. Wild!

Location Suggest change

It is fifty feet right of The Shnoz.

Protection Suggest change

Six bolts.
