Description Suggest change

An aesthetic looking line with plenty of jamming and rotten crystals. Down and Dirty starts in a wide pod, then enters a dual crack system - courtesy of one ginormous flake. Near the top, the line narrows again to one crack for some enjoyable movement. Bolted anchor and rings.
Access to the base of this route may be difficult, but not impossible. I would recommend a short rappel on trees to the anchor, then again to a single bolt protecting your belayer from a fall into the river.
It is possible that more length could be added to this climb by starting on a frozen river. An opposing corner exists (25ft) made of low quality river silt, though it would not take gear. At risk of being contrived and a waste of bolts, the crack portion of this route is all that was climbed during its first ascent.
