Description
An interesting top-rope climb that climbs the arete just left of Bolt and Run. Envisioned one fall by my good friend Brent, we climbed it and found it very enjoyable.
Start of the ground with a few easy moves and then hit the crux of the route at about the 15 foot mark. The crux involves a high step and small or awkward holds, what makes it tough is the foot you need to stand up on is hard to see and easy to forget about, pumping you out. From here just continue climbing the arete on 5.9ish ground to the anchors.
This route is an obvious line because the rope hangs right over the arete after lowering off Bolt and Run 5.9. Because of that we believe it has been done before, so if you have a name for it or any info let me know.
The route is a bit of an eliminate... The arete you climb is the right side of the Chimney of Doom. The left side of the chimney is off, so dont stem across the chimney stay true to the arete.
