Description
Named after French Dan Urbain and Sabrina Poplawski. Bolted, cleaned and wire brushed by K. Stoletov.
Depending on the height of the creek, either start by passing a bolt and pulling up onto a pseudo-ledge, or set up a semi-hanging belay at the first bolt. The next bolt marks the start of the climb- it looks high from the ground, but trust it's placement!
Climb 3 bolts of brilliant, technical resistance styled climbing, then head up and cross (right) the left-slanting arete of "Janus", clipping the perma draw before gaining a rest. In-obvious but easy climbing for a few bolts leads to a final, powerful boulder problem. Finish out on the non-trivial slab.
