Biotech is Godzilla

California > Tahquitz & Suic… > Suicide Rock > (p) Godzilla Face

Description

Start like Montezuma's Revenge but before the short left-facing corner go straight up the face on nice holds, right to a crazy step up on a protruding fin with a nub for balance. Go straight left on good feet but faint hands, then straight up the face between Montezuma's Revenge and Baby Cobra.

Location

In between Montezuma's Revenge and Baby Cobra.

Protection

Green and red c4 for crack on Montezuma's Revenge, then one purple c4 up higher. Bolted anchor out left.

[Hide Comment] Led this by placing gear in MR short dihedral. Falling from the step up on the fin would result in massive pendulum and possible decking without a run and jump belay. After that there's on more good piece then a solid runout on nice crimps and scoops at 10a. Apr 26, 2021
