Description Suggest change

Never Ending Night Train is a unique trad pitch which tackles some surprisingly steep terrain. This line climbs the first half of Tin Roof Sunday. Just below the roof on Tin Roof, move right following the obvious weakness passing great holds, but awkward stances for placing gear. Continue to follow the crack as it turns rather splitter and bends it's way to the top of the crag.

The grade is more a reflection on the pump you get trying to get good gear in the heavily textured crack. That, and it climbs steep. Please help us with the consensus.

If you are fond of the West Elden trad lines, then you will probably enjoy this rumble in the jungle. It almost feels like a Gunk’s route.

Well, I found .5 and .75 BD Camalots to be the most useful, and I would bring three of each next time. Also, a single set from .3 through #3. Highly recommend a fist full of long runners.
