Flying Tiger

FA Dou-Shuan Yang

Description

Potential new problem on Enlightenment Ridge (not in Ocean's 11 guidebook).  Bottom holds were chalked but the topout was covered in dirt and lichen so we suspect undone. Start sitting in dihedral on good holds. Engaging deadpoints on good edges lead to sloping three-finger dish on arete. From there, small edges lead to a technical topout up the slab.  FA on 9/15/18 with second ascent by Nathan Bradford and third ascent by Jackson Adair the same day.  Left start remains a project.  Named for my grandfather, a Flying Tiger in WW2.

Location

Faces West, one gully west of To Die For on enlightenment ridge, 50 meters downhill of the road. Look for large left-hand sidepull at head-height.
