Description

P1. .11a, 115’. This is a long and interesting pitch involving hard, low-angle face moves to start, a steep face climbing crux where the flake disappears for 10’, and fun and strenuous layback moves on an exposed flake. The last third of the pitch is a little loose but not that hard. A 70 meter will just make it with rope stretch if you decide to lower off from the anchor at the end of the pitch.

P2. .8, 115’. Climb the obvious corner. Traverse right around the upper of the two roofs.
