My Own Way

Description

Find the first pitch of Tagger via the route description on the page for that route. This variation was done on-sight lead. Judging by what had to be cleaned from it, it had not been lead prior.

Look below the left-hand edge of the Tagger roof, between the standard start of Tagger and 'Across The River From Butt Hair.' From this position, 'My Own Way' climbs the blunt arete directly, without deviating to either side. This arete intersects the roof on pitch-1 of Tagger at its left-hand side. Pull the roof and follow easy cracks to the anchors above P1 of Tagger. This is only about 30' of independent climbing.

Like the nearby 'I Did It My Way,' this line is not very independent and is not very noteworthy, but for the mind game of committing to the small holds on little or no gear.

Protection

A light standard rack, wherever you can get it in. This can be TR'd from anchors above P1 of Tagger.
