Description Suggest change

A well protected route with distinct and memorable movement. The route shares the start with Tete Gulley and moves left over the steep arete after the shared 3rd bolt, and before the crack crux of Tete Gulley. After the steep arete, Rise Up generally follows the arete on right side with a variety of fun movement and committing moves.

The route is a memorial tribute in honer of Jason Walston. Jay was a kind individual, generous friend to many, a beautiful human, father and my best friend since elementary school. Jay lived in Bend, Oregon and passed away on March 5th, 2021 at the age of 44. Jay touched the lives of many during his 44 years on earth, and his spirit will always be missed. It is my wish that Jay's passion to push himself mentally, rise up physically to a challenge, and send the gnar, live on through those who climb this route. Rise Up. J's Memorial Route.

Location Suggest change

Left of center on the Wall of Shadows, starting just right of Chaitanya.  It is best accessed from Skidmore & 90th, a 2 minute approach from the street, parking on the shoulder. Alternatively, you can walk down and around the corner from Breakfast Crack.

This is a ground-up route, there is no top-rope access.

Protection Suggest change

11 quick draws for the climb and an anchor if setting up a top rope. The Anchor is equipped with steel carabiners for lowering.
