Wet Dreams

Start in the middle of the face beneath the low bulge climbers left of Mission Impossible.  Climb through the bulge to a no hands rest.  Move slightly left along ledges then straight up towards anchors.  The crux comes near the end of the route where the holds are often wet/greasy in classic McConnell's style.

An alternative easier start is to begin climbing far left along the arete, following the Rude Awakenings route to the ledges, then continuing with this route.  Although easier than the traditional start, the top section is the meat of the climb so this doesn't affect the overall grade.

This route is just as good as the more popular Mission Impossible and Temptation to its right and deserves more love.

Starts in the middle of the North face of the Island Block, just climbers left of Mission Impossible, beneath the bulge. Route trends left after the bulge to the anchor bolts.

Bolts for the anchors are directly over the finish, climbers left of Mission Impossible. A pair of single length 60cm slings is perfect for the anchor.
