Description
This is the description of the route to the first anchors. The extension is listed separately.
Climb off the ground on a few pockets, then pull a tricky bit protected by ball nuts and micro cams. Rest up on a ledge, then climb a roof with a hollow hand crack and giant handle bar jug. The roof is protected by three camoflauged bolts out right because of the rock quality and rope rub concerns. I climbed it first without the bolts, but we all decided safety, and reduction of rope-rub over badassery. Clip the first with a sling (a temporary #3 placement helps protect your reach for the bolt). After the roof, enjoy one of the most enjoyable finger cracks around!
