Two Dogs Caged

This route is the perfect punctuation to a great season at Hully and is something to work up to after doing the other lines in the drainage. I really think this is the best testpiece for mixed climbing in the Springs area. You'll be challenged by the thoughtful traversing on pitch one, then your forearms and nerves will be obliterated from the thin crack pick placements in the overhanging roof on pitch two.

Pitch 1 - 35m. Charge up the right side of the second pitch of Hully Gully  until you're even with the roof on the right (about 2/3 up), dump in a screw, and extend it. Traverse right under the roof until you can head up to the chains. You'll find a mix of delicate foot placements and big, powerful moves. Hanging on through the final four bolts will test your endurance as you shop for the small but good pick placements.

Pitch 2 - 32m. Thoughtful face climbing takes you to the first roof where you'll pull through it to a great rest. A great stein hold will get you into the business. Extend the first four bolts to ease rope drag.

This route climbs the wall to the right of Hully Gully's  second pitch finishing up the overhanging face above.

A few ice screws and about 13 quickdraws.

This route would be great in fruitboots. We did the FA in mountain boots and sabretooth crampons, but I'll bring the fruits next time.
