Description
From below the Flatiron, scramble up and left to a vegetated ledge to access the series of corners that arch up and right. The route is on the same formation as, and right of, Route 66 and appears in the photo overview for the Flatiron as the long, arching shadow (p.1) that ends at a green arete (p.2). The first pitch is a free version of a Jon Sykes aid route, and the second pitch was new terrain.
Double rack recommended, (1) #4 for the start.
Pitch 1 Climb some steep flakes to access the series of corners. Belay at a good ledge after 35m of consistent and interesting climbing below a beautiful green arete. 5.11b
Pitch 2 Climb the beautiful arete above, with a crack right on the arete, to a bolted rap anchor. Memorable setting, take a break on top and take in the view. 5.9
