Description Suggest change

A really enjoyable outing and samples some of the best climbing at Con hill. Pitch 1 (5.8) climbs a nice corner crack and to the left to anchors shared with La Guillotine. Pitch 2 (10a) climbs changing corners and cracks to an anchor right of the horn. Pitch 3 (5.9) Cracks and blocks to the base of the wide corner crack. Pitch 4 (10b) Up the corner system with some wide sections and left out the imposing roof (35m). It's possible to do two variations: First is thinner cracks to the right to start and join the main line passing a rappel anchor (no grade difference). Second is exit the roof by going right instead of left and find a hidden finger crack to the anchor (10+). Pitch 4 (10+) ramble up the low angle runout slab to the obvious crack up the final headwall. A couple strenuous moves (easier for the tall) gets you to an easy hand crack.

Location Suggest change

The beautiful belay platform out of stacked rocks.

Protection Suggest change

A large rack. For pitch four it's good to have doubles of #1-3 and some may want a 4.5 or 5 for the wide section though it is not unsafe without. Bolted rappel ring belays. Use all anchors to rappel with a 60m rope.
