Description

Originally a trad climb, shamefully retrobolted. A fine steep route on the lower tier of Trapper Dome. Powerful moves up a well protected corner. Stem and grunt your way to the crux near the top

Location

Locate a obvious bolted corner, just past a large fallen tree,

Protection

6 bolts. Anchor on big pine tree

What a shame someone had to deflower and pull this route down to their selfish level with stainless steel. This was a trad route first established by Scott Loomis. Jul 17, 2017

If The Cradle Will Rock was an established traditional route established by Scott Loomis, why haven't the bolts been chopped? Oct 28, 2017

I feel the hard part is at the top, where the bolt line is stopped and the crack is pretty flaring for protection, and you need to crank for 3 more face moves ... Jul 23, 2018
