Description Suggest change

The Governor is the first extension to Electric Chair. It tackles the wild and exposed roofs above Electric Chair and features awesome steep climbing, technical kneebarring, and difficult cruxes on good rock.

From the anchor for Electric Chair navigate a boulder problem on crimps and small slopers up to a good rest in the first big roof. Downright classic steep-climbing moves lead out the roof and into an intricate but not-all-that-bad sequence up to and past a pair of blocky crimps and finally to another good rest in the second big roof. Camp out here and contemplate the crux looming above, which can be executed at least two entirely distinct ways. Pick your preferred method and wrestle out the roof and up past the last bolt. A few long reaches between good holds lead up to the anchor, where you can lower to the ground with an 80m rope, or better yet, continue up to the summit on Three Strikes And You're Out.

This route is a classic at the grade for Jailhouse and should not be missed.
