Description

After an easy start, traverse right across a slab to an overhanging hand crack. Jam or layback up this crux sequence until you can use the boulder at your back. Work your way up and on top of this boulder before scrambling to the anchor. The last pay is runout but very easy. Awesome, varied climb. Climbable with a 60m rope, but be careful.

[Hide Comment] Crux is challenging for the grade. Stemming on the boulder higher up is fantastical. You look between your legs and see that you are stemming a 100+ ft. deep canyon. Awesome rush! Oct 6, 2018
