Description

P1: 5.9+ ***Move up and left past two bolts on ramp, then get physical. If you like ‘em wide, this pitch is for you. Continue up to a two bolt anchor. If you're just doing the first pitch, then lower off. 25 m If you're doing the second pitch too, clip the first set of anchors and move up to the second anchor at the base of the steep corner.
P2: 10 *** Climb the corner. Overhanging hands and fists. Very cool if your into that kind of thing. 20m. Lower off.

Location

Juniper Wall Left
The large snag and beautiful right facing corner are the notable features on this part of the wall.

Protection

Gear to #3 Camalot for both pitches. Offset cams are helpful for the second pitch.
