Bones of Ymir

Oregon > Willamette Valley > Eagles Rest > (B) Midgard

Description

Starting in a shallow cave, the climb ascends through three distinct sections: a juggy roof, a textured slab with positive holds, and an overhanging arete. This is another route that is often wet, although it can be climbed even if the slab is wet. The slab is textured enough and has enough positive holds that the dampness isn't an issue. While the juggy roof to start is highly enjoyable, the overhanging arete to finish is perhaps even more enjoyable as well as being the crux. A classic at the crag!

Location

The left route in Midgard. Up and left from the Dream Wall, just around the corner.

Protection

4 bolts and 4 permadraws to sport loweroffs.

[Hide Comment] One of the better warmups at eagles rest. I think the first overhang is actually harder than the 2nd if you know where all the holds are.

Anchor placement on this one isn't ideal, tucked back in that corner it ends up grating the rope a bit on lower. Jul 25, 2021

[Hide Comment] The first roof is pumpy, fun and powerful.
The second roof is ultra classic!
It’s so fun to traverse out and have all that air underneath your feet.
Definitely one of the best 10s at the crag! Aug 6, 2021
