Description
Like the A-10, this route packs a punch. This climb is a variation to Hog Heaven, meets that route around bolt 3 or 4, and finishes on the same anchors. Well-protected, bouldery, and overhanging moves from bolts 1-3 require powerful and delicate moves to surmount the crux. After bolt 3, clip the old piton (if you like), and either use a long length runner to reach around left and clip bolt 3 of Hog Heaven or run it out a bit on 5.8/9 terrain to bolt 4 of Hog Heaven.
One can stickclip the first (or maybe even the second) bolt, but a climber can clip the first bolt before committing to the face even at 5’6” tall.
Protection
8 bolts total including one piton and including if you clip bolt 3 of Hog Heaven. Bring 1-2 alpine runners to extend the piton (optional) and the third bolt of Hog Heaven (recommended).
