Description
60 meter or longer rope is required for this line. If you are climbing with a 50 meter rope, feel free to use the mid-route rap station.
Route progressively gets harder as you climb, with the crux near the last few bolts. The darker red rock is usually a sign of water runoff and seasonal drainage so some minor dusting of holds may be required, from time-to-time.
Line was bolted by Bill Weishaar using glue-in eye bolts, stainless rap chains and quick clip rap hooks. First ascent goes to Kelly Foster.
Location
Just left of another tall line known as Sawasdee. Both routes start near each other but Sawasdee (5.8+), the harder of the two, follows the right side of the red section of rock and becomes a bit more vertical towards the top.
Start in an obvious dihedral leading up to a large horizontal pocket. Continue up using good sized, block holds until gaining a ledge at the base of the upper, slightly more vertical face.
