RAPTOR CLOSURES: please be aware of seasonal raptor closures. They occur annually in the spring. Indian Creek Raptor Closure walls include: Echos, The Wall, Far Side, Original Meat, Tenderloins, Second Meat, First Meat, Selfish, Six Star, Cliffs of Insanity, Public Service Wall, Disappointment Cliffs, Fin Wall, Broken Tooth, Cat Wall, Slug Wall, Reservoir Wall, Critic’s Choice.
Description
This route starts with blocky face climbing for about 30'. The first few moves are in a shallow right-facing corner in the middle of the wall. The remainder of the route follows a finger crack through various features (shallow corners, small ledge).
I thought this to be an excellent intro finger-crack route, as there are only 2 short sections where the climber must make moves without good feet. In both cases, the crack has excellent finger locks (for most people).
This route holds sun for most of the day in late November.
Protection
BD Camalots: 0.1 - 0.75 (?). Mostly 0.3 and 0.4.
Very small gear (0.1) is crucial to protect the first 30 feet, though the climbing is moderate.
Two bolt anchor at the top. I may be remembering incorrectly, but I think there is only one rap ring and the other bolt is just a hanger. Plan on rapping instead of lowering.
