Description

Near Miss climbs the first 60 feet of Direct Hit for 8 bolts, and then the climber can climb to the right and lower off the anchors on the top of Close Call. It is a fun moderate climb with consistent movement on featured rock.

Location

The route has the same start as Direct Hit.

Protection

8 bolts to a 2-bolt anchor with chains and steel carabiners (the same anchors as for Close Call).
