Description

The best Goods link-up (so far…)

The first pitch of Dance of the Cedar is a cool pitch but hard to onsight, and maybe better as a top rope first?

I suggest the following:

Warm-up: Forest Bathing

P1: Deep Roots or The Lorax

Rappel climbers right to a ledge with small trees and a 2 bolt rap anchor 50 ft above & 25 feet right of the start of Deep Roots/Lorax

(Optional) TR P1 of Dance of the Cedar

Climb P2 and 3 of Dance of the Cedar

***NOTE: 70m rope mandatory to get off Dance of the Cedar***

Location

Follow the directions for The Goods area

Protection

Follow the rack given for either Deep Roots or The Lorax.
P2 of Dance of the Cedar is all bolt protected (optional .3/.4 between bolts. P3 is long. Doubles 0.2-3 and a set of nuts. 5 alpine draws.
