Description Suggest change

This route climbs the obvious deep chimney/corner in the center of the formation just right of Mad Max. It shares the start with Mad Max for the first 4 pitches of climbing. Then it continues straight up into the chimney/corner system. The first ascent party climbed 2 pitches of moderate ice and mixed followed by two long pitches of delicate mixed climbing. The final pitch was done by headlamp and did not go free.  Instead, aid up and right away from the chimney with two tension traverses off of pitons. Expect delicate, insecure mixed climbing. Protection is adequate, but often requires pounding pitons from tenuous stances.

Location Suggest change

Fury Road shares the first 4 pitches of Mad Max, then climbs the corner/chimney to the right.

Protection Suggest change

Rack: 5-7 screws, 1 set cams to #3 BD, 1 set of nuts, 4-6 KBs, 3 LAs, 2-3 angles, and 2-3 BD peckers.
