Description
Gravity Well is a fun, 2 pitch route that climbs the face left of The Raven. P1 starts up The Ways with a runout traverse across a ledge to 3 bolts and an anchor. Bring a few long draws for rope management. If continuing, climb up the the anchor for The Raven and belay.
P2 climbs left up slightly rotten but secure climbing and clips a fixed draw at the lip of a roof. Pull the roof on good holds, then continue up easier face to the crux at a higher roof. Work right then back left for the final tricky moves reaching the anchor.
Location
Walk halfway up into the Black Hole, and look for a trail branching right onto slabs. The first route is Machin Shin, and the second is Gravity Well. It is easy but licheny climbing to a high first bolt.
