waiver.smartwaiver.com/w/5e…

Location

This 32m climb starts 2m to the left of Rainman.

Protection

Standard rack to 3"

Description

P1. Start on a low angle face, following the discontinuous crack. Climb over a roof on good holds to gain a slab section below a white roof. Anchors 3m left.

P2. Follow the broken crack system, or clip bolts to your right, but beware of rope drag. Gain the white roof and follow the crack over on rock-star jugs.

P1&2 can be linked with a 70m rope, just use runners to reduce rope drag.
