Description
P1, 5.13c - Fingers-C1
P2, 5.9 - Choss and hand-sized gear
P3, 5.12a - Right-leaning baggy fists and tight knees (size dependent) up to a pod feature under a short offwidth roof. The roof requires an inversion to exit on old 4.0s to a technical birth-like brutal watermelon passing pivot. A Creek offwidth testpiece indeed.
Backstory
The first ascent of all three pitches was completed by Shanti Pack and Patrick Kingsbury in 2015. Subsequently, Shanti Pack showed how it was done with the FFA of the inverted offwidth of pitch 3 and called it 5.12a. There are great photos and video available of Pamela Shanti Pack making the ascent including a REEL Rock clip with photo credit going to Andrew Burr.
