Description Suggest change

Follow the vertical crack all the way. Top rope soloed in Mar-2025 Mark Younger Seconded a month or so later by Mickey Bakas.

In Sep-2025 the route had been bolted by an unknown party and was led by Mark Younger.

Please let me know if you know anything about the bolting so I can give you credit. The bolts were really well positioned. We added quicklinks to the anchor.

I'm more used to Ewbank grades, and haven't climbed enough recently to even guess at this climb's grade - please leave suggestions

Location Suggest change

Nice crack and arete about 6 feet right of Comparison is the Thief of Joy

Protection Suggest change

4 bolts and anchor. Could be set up as a top rope but I'd suggest anchoring yourself to a tree before you get too close to the edge
