Description Suggest change

A slightly easier route that goes up the left side of the main face. The first pitch is the crux and can be done alone.

P1 - 11b, 100ft. - This pitch is amazing and will test all aspects of your game. It is quite remarkable, and quite tough. Pumpy bolted laybacking leads to some thin, thought provoking face sections. Steep crimps at the top round out the action.

2 more 5.9 pitches with bolted anchors lead to the top. Amazing.

Rap route with two ropes. Or, walk right and rap Taipan at first, then use anchors on Tears. 1 rope. Or walk off

Location Suggest change

The left most route on the wall

Protection Suggest change

P1 is mostly bolted (11 bolts IIRC), but a finger size piece towards the top will tame a slight runout if you're chicken like me. And a hand size piece will protect the mantle to the anchor. A light rack for the upper pitches.
