Forsaken

Cool new steep face route between Breathing Hard and White Line Fever. First pitch is a great stand-alone pitch at 5.10a. Second pitch is an easy ramp with one hard bulge. Third pitch is a sport pitch which climbs the steep, intricate face past 10 bolts (zero gear opportunities). The last 2 easy pitches are not new, they join Breathing Hard (& White Line Fever for the last 1.5 pitches).

Start Breathing Hard, and move right at the big horizontal crack about 40' up (Breathing Hard takes the left crack then moves left on big knobs). Move up to a bolt, then back left to the offwidth groove (3.5" cam). Up the groove past a bolt to the top, then follow closely-spaced bolts right and up on steep thin edges & knobs to a bolted belay on the big ledge (100'). Second pitch (50') climbs the easy ramp which has one dirty, funky bulge (5.9, fixed piton) to a bolted anchor. Third pitch angles left following the bolts to a bolted anchor (100'). Rap from here with a single 60m rope (knot rope ends!!) or do 2 easy pitches to the top, starting past the only pro bolt on Breathing Hard (which is about 15' above the anchor - note that the Reid/Falkenstein topo incorrectly shows it much higher and further left). No fixed anchors above the 3rd pitch anchor.

Pro to 3.5", 10 draws.
