Description
Perform an easy though ignominious belly flop start. Straighten out your collar and proceed to utilize minuscule edges, groin stretching high-steps, and starfish maneuvers to pass the first crux. Take solace at the fifth bolt. From there enjoy a potpourri of puzzles including a precarious traverse, some corner-like merriment, and the final challenge on quintessential sport wall rock. Deliciously gritty! Can lower with 60 meter. Tie a knot!
Scatterlings was overhauled as of Summer 2019 with 1/2" SS bolts and fast clip SS anchors. I was able to re-use 100% of the original holes. After discussing with locals and reaching out to the FA parties, I did take liberty in adding two additional bolts to eliminate 2 unnecessary run-outs. Feel free to skip bolt #5 and #9 if you want to relive the original experience, but know a fall before clipping bolt 10 could break your ankles .
Location
Beginning at the left edge of the sport wall ledge. Just right of Wildest Dreams and slightly downhill. A TR can easily be managed by climbing Wildest Dreams P1 & P2. Rap straight down to the anchors - but don't end up climbers left @ the new anchors for Mr. Longarm.
Protection
12 bolts. Then SS cold shuts. Shorter climbers should consider stick clipping first bolt. Currently has a couple fixed draws at the beginning, but will probably pull these soon as they don't seem to be increasing traffic, and complaints of decreased aesthetics are circulating amongst some groups.
