Description
Start on Fingers of Flame and climb to its anchors. From there it's a few bolts of less than vertical techy slab. You can find a tricky rest before launching into the steep bucket climbing coming up. These buckets are flat, they're pumpy as hell, and they're delightfully awkward! The final ending can be a real heartbreaker if you finally get there.
This extension was a different way to join into Steve Bleyl's extension of Oni, called Onidaba. I feel that both climbs area tough 12b's. Oni has a much harder section of climbing, but you do get a way better rest before going into the steep buckets. Whereas, Burnt to the Bone is an easier 11c, but not as good a rest as Onidaba.
The most interesting thing to me was how easy the big limestone buckets looked and just how weird they were to move off of.
