Description Suggest change

Sustained route on good crimps with a unique flake section. A must-do. If you are not comfortable in that grade you might want to stick clip the first bolt. Named after Merrick Montemurro.

Unless the creek is low to non-existent, start as for "Janus" from the bolted belay/platform following the bolt line until the second perma. If the creek is low, aim directly for the lone bolt under the Janus perma-draw line instead. Either way involves the same technical climbing to get through the first 2 perma-draws before crossing (to the right) the Janus arete and pulling up onto a small ledge for a rest. Clip up as you leave your rest (back slightly to your left), then head through finger buckets (crimps) and side pulls until you reach a big flake for a biceps heavy rest. Climb the flake and oblique crack, and keep it together for the slab finish!
