Hellhound

Description

Hellhound is an amazing, overhung, compression problem in the middle of the meadow. This problem is very wide and may be impossible for those with a span under ~5'9".

Start at the bottom of the roof with a sharp-ish, left hand jug sidepull (bottom of the hold) and your right hand on the bottom of the arete on a flat shelf-hold. Use heelhooks, toehooks, and more to compress your way up.

The rock is perfect on this thing.

There is also a higher V10ish start, starting with the same left hand (but more underclinging the hold than sidepulling) and your right hand 2 holds higher on a good sloper on the arete (4 inches to the right of the sloper with the good thumbcatch) This start may be slightly less morpho.

Location

It is down in the middle of the meadow below the talus field. You can't miss it.

Protection

4-5 pads.
