The Burn (Escape Variation)

FA unknown
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

Climb The Burn to the large horizontal break (optional belay).  Pull up and over the bulge to a stance. Traverse left to a short right-facing corner.  Climb the corner to its top and a good stance.  Traverse left to the  upper part of the EJ crack and finish up this to the large ledge.

Similar to the "Traverse Pitch", you can get to this either by climbing the first half of The Burn or pitch 1 of Ecstasy.  If starting up The Burn, you could do this all in one pitch without too much trouble on rope drag (use long runners as needed).  If climbing up P1 of Ecstasy, it would be wise to do it in two pitches, building a belay at the horizontal break.

Location

Climb the first half of The Burn or pitch 1 of Ecstasy.

Protection

Standard trad rack; no special gear needed.
