It’s Quale

Description

Short but sweet.

Slab start is classic!

Thin, balancy moves off the ground lead to a heel hook that secures the first bolt. Follow some crimps of increasing depth to a bomber ledge for the second bolt. Rest up. A kneebar perhaps? Deep breaths? Do what you gotta do. Use any method of pushing, pulling, compression, and forearm scraping to pull the bulge. Clip the last bolt and launch into a full body game of inches on the delicate face to gain the ledge.

Above the ledge, a systems of cracks lead to a bolted anchor. No move harder than 5.7/5.8 after the ledge. Place a few pieces or don’t fall.

Location

Obvious slab with right hand arete. Far right of the waterfall.

Protection

3 bolts. The cracks will eat up any gear you got. I used a .75 and a 3 but plenty of room for anything .5-3.
