Der Glotzenlinks

5.8+, Trad, TR, 50 ft (15 m),  Avg: 3.1 from 10 votes
FA: unknown
Wisconsin > Baraboo Range > Devil's Lake > E Bluff 06 - Ba… > 2. Balanced Rock Wall

Description

The wall between Der Glotz and Sunken Pillar is a superb face climb and would be done more often if it was given a name! The route starts in the same spot as Der Glotz but, where that goes up and right, Der Glotzenlinks goes straight up. There are several solid 5.8 moves on this very pretty route. This doesn't use the same holds or cross and other route. It has been done many times but has never had a name.

Location

5' wide wall between Der Glotz and Sunken Pillar

Protection

First 8' is blank (maybe a crash pad). The next 10' would go fine with small/tiny wired nuts. The finish will work fine with small and medium pieces.
