Warm Up

Climb #8: Warm-Up (5.6, 100') You can either start at ground level or scramble up to the large tree 15’ up and belay from there. It is probably one of the three most popular routes at Love Gap. The route goes up a right-facing corner with small broken ledges. When the corner runs out, cross over left onto to the left side of the slab and follow low-angle left-facing corner up a few moves.

After 10-15’ feet, pull up and right out onto the slab face (crux), follow slab up to the bolted anchor. At the crux there is a yellow TCU placement in small pocket on the slab face – don’t miss it, as the slab is slightly run out.

Standard trad rack.
