Description Suggest change

Named after a pumpkin launching competition.

P1: Start the same as Knobtopia. Move left after the first bolt past two more bolts to a ledge with some moss pads. Finish below the anchor.

P2: Move straight up off the belay. Clip the first bolt short. Move onto the headwall and clip the next bolt. Dance back and forth to figure out the tricky sustained sequence past bolt 2. Grab a sweet orange jug and keep moving up the delicate face past several more bolts. There is a runout on easy terrain to reach the last bolt. After the last bolt, continue moving up on easy terrain while keeping an eye out for the anchors out right on a big ledge.

Rappel the route twice with a 60m rope.

Location Suggest change

Just before the central pillar that splits the main wall.

Protection Suggest change

Mostly bolts except for the #2 and #3 at the anchor of P1.
