Description Suggest change

Mithril is a great route! It is probably one of the best in the grade at Sailing Hawks with long reaches to good crimps right up the middle of the beautiful Gates of Moria prow. Dakota did the first ascent alone with one pad!, but I would highly recommend a spotter and a couple pads to protect the big rock behind you. (In the pic with the topo this is labeled Theory Has It... because Dakota decided to change the name to align with the lord of the rings theme after I had already created that topo pic).  See this pic mountainproject.com/photo/1…

Location Suggest change

Sit start on the left arete of the Gates of Moria, and proceed directly up the center of the prow following the dark streak.

Protection Suggest change

Pads and a spot.
