Description Suggest change

A thought provoking climb that starts in the obvious left angling discontinous cracks about 10' left of G.I Joe in what looks to be an easy romp to some roofs above, (the cracks directly behind the "G.I. Joe" caption).

The difficulties start immediately as the easiest moves (and pro) are very well "Camouflaged" and require a bit of care. Mostly thin wire pro with a few runouts will get you past the thin section and to the nice hand-crack above. Follow the hand crack over several bulges and a small roof. If you go heavy enough on mid to mid-large cams you can run the whole pitch with a 60M rope to a great belay from a large tree. The final 20' above the last roof to the tree is excellent fun in a wide crack with a hidden hand-crack inside. Absolutely bomber holds!

Protection Suggest change

A few small wires and micro-cams for the start than a standard rack with doubles in the larger sizes to run it in one 60M pitch. A couple of long slings around a tree for the anchor.
