Description

A very enjoyable, two-pitch climb.

P1

(60', 5.7) A fun, interesting pitch on good feet and positive handholds through very good quality rock. Start on a small ledge and climb low-angled terrain through the first bolt to a short headwall. A fun move or two to get past the steep bit, clip a bolt, and then bear left.

Climb a steeper section through three bolts on good holds, and then continue on somewhat lowered angled rock to the anchors.

P2

(80', 5.10a) Climb up and left from the anchor past two bolts to an overhanging v-slot. Clip the bolt under the intimidating overhang with a longer draw and get established via positive handholds and small footholds. Fun stemming and liebacking moves.

Continue up on large handholds to another intimidating overhang with rounded, rough-textured handholds. Another series of really fun, big moves surmounts this feature. Continue up and over the last small overhang and look left and back for the chain anchors.

Walk off north (quick and easy) or two single rope rappels.

Location

Counting from the route in the left black streak, this is the fourth route from the left.

Protection

P1

7 bolts, hangers-and-rings anchors (shared with

Shot Down in Flames

to the left).

P2

9 bolts, chain anchors (facing away from the gully, located over your left shoulder as you reach the top of the climb).

Rope drag is heavy when toproping or lowering off the first pitch. Bring something to extend the anchors and be prepared to abrade your rope.

Bring a couple of slings or longer draws for both the first and second pitches.
