Peak Mountain 3

Tube Steak Boogie

Description

Short, but very sustained climb on a beautiful piece of overhanging granite in a pleasant forest setting.

Stand up on the ledge to clip the first bolt and then fire off a sequence of progressively harder, bouldery moves to the top.

The climb is given 12d in the 2017 North Tahoe guidebook, but a key foot broke at the beginning of the crux around the 3rd bolt and the upgrade to 13a seems fair. Very much a roped boulder problem, so your opinion on the grade may vary.

Location

Obvious line up the center of the overhanging face that the leaning tree rests on.

Protection

4 fixed draws, lower-off anchors.
