Description

Improbable climbing for the grade takes you through a series of horizontal roofs where your playgrounds monkey bar skills may pay off.  Unfortunately, just when you’re starting to enjoy the climbing, you’re at the lip and the ride is over.   Grade may be height dependent.

Always dry.

Location

  • Starts about 15 ft to to the right of the Calf Ripper crack on a vert face.  

Protection

3 bolts and anchors

[Hide Comment] Ironically, I found the crux to be getting off the ground. Definitely feel that the grade is dependent on the start. Skip the start? 10d. Full moves from start? 11a/b. Beautiful airy moves up to the lip that definitely feel easier than they look. I needed to dyno for the first ledge, I am sure others can do it statically like Jordan's video below. Too bad the route is so short. Nov 21, 2020
