Description Suggest change

This is a new extension following the seam above Humboldt Current or the Mermaid. Its best to use several slings early on to minimize rope drag. Catch a great rest on the ledge, then set off with a few close bolts and an attentive belay to keep you safe above the ledge. None of the moves are particularly that hard up to the wedge, but they multiply enough that the repetitive big throws mean the pump at the end is real! The end is shockingly steep.

I aided it ground-up with crap gear and RBs to get the rope up. The crack was full of choss, dirt, and I pulled a fat block on my shoulder, then spent 11.5 hours over four days cleaning and prepping the line. It was a ton of work, but I think it turned out really well. Get on it!
