FA: unknown
Colorado > Eagle/Vail/Mint… > Painstake
Warning Access Issue: Trail Close to Private Land DetailsDrop down

Description

Locate a blocky sidepull on a block-like feature below the first bolt. Good holds in the crack like system and on the face to the left provide safe passage to the first clip. A stickclip may be advised if this is pushing your grade limit.

Location

A patch of bright lichen by the second and third bolt make this an easy climb to find. It is down the hill from the Insomnia arete.

Protection

Quickdraws for 9 bolts.

[Hide Comment] A wonderful route: nice moves on good holds. Certainly longer than fifty feet - and that's a good thing! Oct 4, 2024
[Hide Comment] I agree with Sean! It’s 85 feet long, not 50, and has nine bolts. We know because we used a 165-foot rope. Oct 4, 2024
