Description

Pull through pockets and horizontal edges past a low first bolt and a ledge 12ft up. Grab the first good hold above the ledge and clip a high second bolt. Work a tricky sidepull/undercling combo with slick feet to more layback climbing and another bolt. Move through a few delicate moves to a final roof and the anchors above.

Location

10ft left of Funboy.

Protection

6 bolts. 2 bolt anchor with quicklinks and non-locking biners.

[Hide Comment] Very fun route, highly recommended. Low crux between bolts 2 and 3 with good hands and bad feet leads to steep'ish jug hauling to the anchors. Soft compared to the other 9's at this crag. Apr 18, 2021
