Description
What a pitch! After looking at this feature from the backside of Pywiak for years I finally made it up there and Whippersnapper delivers!
The hang is great, there is a giant boulder that forms a perfect pad to hang on and belay from.
The route starts up a 5.10 flake to a no hands rest below the business. The obvious splitter through the orange bulge is the crux. Big moves between good jams. But it is not over once you get to end of the bulge, tricky and exciting moves get you established on the vertical wall above. From there follow the well-protected knobbly crack to the freshly drilled 2 bolt anchor.
