Description

Super interesting at the grade! The furthest right route on the wall, a little steepness in a shallow corner takes you to bolt 1. A few more bolts of chert jugs on slab brings you over some blocks (solid to stand on) and into a left facing corner. Cool stemming for a few moves takes you onto the upper slab, and after pulling a slight bulge, a steeper wall with cool chert rails brings you to the anchor. A super pleasant climb!

Protection

Eight bolts to anchors.

[Hide Comment] There is a block/ledge on this thing that I would tread lightly on. Attempts to trundle were unsuccessful but I suspect it won't be a permanent piece of the wall - just a matter of whether we are talking on a glacial time scale or human.

Other than that, fun warmup. Sep 24, 2017

[Hide Comment] The physical crux of this route is before the first bolt - consider a stick clip on this one if the grade is at your limit for a more casual experience. Oct 28, 2024
