Shakedown Street

Idaho > W Idaho > Pins And Needles > Pins > Northern Pins > Terrapin

Description

Great route to the summit of the Terrapin. Bolted for 2 pitches but can be done in one with either a two rope or double rap. Belay station at first anchor isn't great. Might as well do the whole thing in one shot and have the follower bring a second rope if you have the capability/draws. As per usual in this area, bring a 70m (and a spare if possible) or be prepared to get creative with a 60m

Location

Terrapin Center Area. Starts right (West) of Bee Line. Bolts are obvious, two bolted anchor with chains for the first pitch can be easily seen from the ground. Second set of anchors at the top are obvious and you will rap from there as well.

Protection

7-8 draws and anchor if doing in 2 pitches, 14+ and anchor if doing a single long pitch.

[Hide Comment] The fifth bolt on pitch one is located in the middle of a large flake. Falling here would be unadvisable. Fun climbing! Jun 19, 2023
