Manfully Endowed

Description

What used to be the ending of the original line is now a short extension to Gainfully Unemployed that adds a powerful granite mantle troublem. The lower anchor was added to create a nice .12b that's quite distinct from the top section. Benjit told me I could/should name this extension: caveat emptor on that one, Benjit! He also told me I was wrong about it being .12c/d, so I guess it gets the mighty 7c+. It's not the hardest 7c+, but the funky nature of the boulder problem makes it kind of hard to grade. The hardest or at least the most technical moves on the route are probably still at the very bottom accessing the sloping ramp.

Location

Gainfully Unemployed starts with Cold Beer in the River but immediately heads right on a grim traverse up a sloping ramp. Manfully Endowed simply climbs to the second anchor past two more bolts.

Protection

Bolts and fixed anchors. Anchors just have carabiners currently and are pretty annoying to clip. 70m makes it down.
