Access Issue: Partial closure due to flood damage Details

Severe flood damage in August of 2023 has caused closures on parts of the mountain. Updates posted at gomtcharleston.com/spring-m…

Description

Sit start on the left arete of the Bloody Soil Boulder using a shallow right hand pinch and a left hand crimp/undercling.

Make a couple powerful moves up and right through textured slopers and pinches. Continue riding the arete and topout as for Charleston's Bloody Soil (V8/9)

When we were first trying this climb we believed it to be an undone line as there was no chalk on it. After finishing it we got some whispers that Harry may have done it first. Seeing as it is likely to have been sent at some point since it’s not too difficult I will credit him with the FA. I couldn’t get into contact with the first ascentionist to find the original name for the climb, but it tore Matt’s skin a bunch while we were trying it, so we dubbed it “Blood Transfusion” to fit with the boulder.

Location

Left line on the Bloody Soil boulder. If you are walking downhill through the main Subway tunnel, the boulder will be about 30 yards to your right as soon as the area opens up with Subway Roof (V6) on your left.
