Description

Climb Offspring for 5 bolts then continue straight and slightly left instead of going hard right. Do not clip the 6th bolt of Offspring! It gets really tight and grovely forcing you into a fetal position before surmounting the lip of the roof. The last bolt doesn't have a perma draw because you can clean it easily and can blindly place a draw while still under the roof. To mitigate drag while lowering get on the last bolt and back clean the last perma then get some slack and flick your rope around a bulging chalkstone. You lower all the way to the ground unlike Offspring.
