Description Suggest change

Named after my decking experience while being lowered off of Brady's Route a few weeks ago, the direct line to Sand Dollar, "Skyfall" is born. This was listed as an old project in Tim Kuss' Durango Sandstone guidebook bolted by Jimmy Simmons? Although there is a 2 bolt anchor before the roof starts, I climbed this as one big 35 meter pitch. Knot your ends, and bring a 70m! Start with a fun, easy, and well-bolted slab (right of Conch), and climb to the base of the roof. Use a couple double length runners for rope drag purposes, and then bust up steep 5.12 terrain on good holds. Please take caution pulling on the first jugs over the lip! They are a bit hollow sounding! After a little choss, rest up, and fire a V6ish sequence on a thin seam before linking up with Sand Dollar.

Location Suggest change

This is two bolted lines to the right of Brady's Route/Sand Dollar, or one route right of Conch. Locate the well bolted slab (I believe the first pitch of Flat Track), and climb straight up and through the roof to Sand Dollar's anchor.

Protection Suggest change

12 draws and 1-2 double length slings.
