Description Suggest change

This gem is only officially climbable during Triple Crown.

Stand start matched on the sloping arete-like feature. Find a foot and lock-off out left to a good gaston edge. With difficulty get a high foot and match before firing up to a sloper and then heading up and right to mantle.

A little contrived, but the contrivance makes it a better and more fun line. There are large jugs just left off the gaston that is matched. There is also a large foot rail underneath the gaston edge which is on. Although avoiding it and dynoing to the lip makes it a bit more challenging.

A good way to climb this problem is to get after it once the golf course closes for the day.

Location Suggest change

When crossing from the Super Mario Area to the Back Nine, one can turn around and see this climb visible about 150 yards away on the golf course in the cluster of boulders. To approach it, walk from the Sternum Area past "Left Wing" and "Right Wing" and reach the golf course. Walk left past some slabby boulders and round the corner on the right. This is the first line found.

Protection Suggest change

3 pads.
