Captain Chaos

5.13, Sport, 90 ft (27 m),  Avg: 4 from 1 vote
FA: unknown
S Carolina > Table Rock SP > Pumpkintown > Lower Left Wall

Description

This testpiece sport route was bolted as a gift to the climbing community. It has a deviously thin start for the first few bolts, but eases to moderate climbing above. It shares anchors with "Hair Fuhrer" and "Drain the Swamp" and is also the rappel for those climbs. The route has seen many attempts, but has not yet been red pointed. Good rock quality.

Location

Right of the "Drain the Swamp" crack. Leftmost bolted route on the Lower Left (aka MAGA) Wall at Pumpkintown. 

Protection

7 bolts + 2 bolt top anchor

[Hide Comment] Is this a slab? Or a face climb? I'm thinking of checking this one out and I was just curious to find out a bit more about it beforehand. Dec 28, 2022

[Hide Comment] It is a face climb that starts as very thin techy vert section (at least V8) and ends as a moderate slab. The crux is the vert section at the first couple of bolts. Jan 3, 2023
