Strict Machine

5.10c, Sport, 60 ft (18 m),  Avg: 3.2 from 11 votes
FA: Brent Webster 7-28-24
California > San Bernardino… > Highway 38 Crags > (g) Monkeyface… > Alcove > Alcove Left

Description

Start off with some fun movement between positive holds.  The angle really kicks back on the last 1/3 of the route.  Steep and thuggy moves to the anchor. Great route in the Alcove.


The anchors are straight up the bolt line to mussy hooks. The extension is continuing up and right (about 2 o’clock).

  • Extension: continue up to the higher anchors of Goodness Gracious.  This adds some hard moves that puts this extension around 5.11a.

Location

Between Taking Candy from a Baby and Goodness Gracious.

Protection

bolts

Anchor: mussy hooks for lowering
