Description
Better bring the big guns for the face melting, forearm bursting pump that this route packs!
Buffy is an alternate start to
Huffy
with more consistent and steeper climbing but slightly less difficult moves. The two routes meet at the midway crux of
Huffy
.
Start the same as
A Gentlehoe
for the first four bolts. At the good rest under the roof, bust right (first crux) with powerful lockoffs through good pockets to gain an ok rest at bolt #6. From here, pull into the midway crux of
Huffy
(second crux) to get the final rest at bolt #8 before the powerful and long ender crux of
Huffy
.
As for the grade, again I really have no clue. It seems to be just a bit more demanding than
Huffy
.
Location
Do the same start as
A Gentlehoe
, 20 feet left of
Huffy
up the prominent, blue, left-facing corner.
Protection
10 bolts plus chain anchors. Extended draws on bolts 2 through 7 help reduce rope drag and ease clipping.
A stick clip is highly recommended for the first bolt as the climbing is harder than it looks!
A left knee pad is useful but not necessary.
