Details
(1) The area, crags, and routes just north of the Twin Sisters are on private land and the landowner posted no trespassing notices at the gated road/trail to the area. Any access of these areas and routes is trespassing. The area was closed by the landowner due to trespassing, illegal camping, fires & trash, and disregard of owner's privacy.
Please be respectful of the land owner's wishes and do not climb or hike here. This includes White Lightning, Skinner Roof, Weather Wall, Yellow Wall, Larry's Annihilation, Needle Rock, Mississippi Fred's, and Secret Tom's.
(2) In 2024 CIRO implemented a no trash cans anywhere policy. Be prepared to take your trash home with you. facebook.com/CityOfRocksNPS… and nps.gov/ciro/planyourvisit/…
(3) HIGHLINING IS PROHIBITED

Description
"Audacious Icarus! You dare invade MY domain! Your doom is nigh! What will be your downfall? My overhead labyrinth of crimps? My razor fangs of quartz? Or your pitiful, melting forearms of wax?"
Will you triumph over the Minotaur by onsighting this route? Or will you timidly skulk past the beast on your seventh burn? The brilliant crux of this unique climb is a pumpy overhang with a precise series of holds on sharp, coarse-grained granite. Can you puzzle out the sequence before your forearms melt? Good luck!
Route Notes:
- Consider rappelling to avoid rope wear over a sharp edge.
Original Hardware Installed in 2023:
- Bolts: Fixe Stainless Steel Wedge Bolt #340 Double Expansion 3/8" x 3 3/4", (17mm wrench). The bolt holes were drilled extra deep, to aid possible future route maintenance.
- Hangers: Fixe Stainless Steel 3/8" Powder Coat. Although these came factory-painted, to better match our rock color, I applied additional ultra flat camo paint, colored "sand" and with a misting of black specks.
- Chain: Everbuilt, grade 43, 3/8", zinc plated steel.
- Quick links: Climbtech 3/8" plated steel, 2200 lbs working load, (15mm wrench).
