Jose's Climb

FA: Cadence Brown and Adam Brown
California > Northwest Calif… > Cold Springs > Outer Rocks > Roof Rock

Description

Climbed the day after Major League pitcher Jose Fernandez died. This route starts easy and gets harder as you climb. From the ground, work your up boulders and bulges, staying along the right side of the face. After clipping the first bolt, get up into steep upper face, finding good holds. Clip the last bolt while leaning back over the face. Pull the crux of the climb by working past the last steep section and onto the bulge on top where you will find a two bolt anchor.

Location

On the south side of the west face on Roof Rock

Protection

3 bolts and 2 bolt anchor.

[Hide Comment] We were standing 50’ from this rock studying the description to find it. Didn’t think this could possibly be it, it’s about 20’ with 3 bolts, chossy and mossy. Watch out for the loose jug/block at the top. Aug 11, 2019
