South of the Mouth

This climb is a massive right-trending flake and corner system, perhaps 50m uphill from the bolted routes

Slab Left

and

Slab Right

.

The route's length is made longer by the fact that the flake system continuously leans strongly right. It is mostly a crack, but climbs much of its length like a juggy hands-traverse.

I did not place any gear on this but found it likely that the route would take mostly solid gear from 2-3.5" along its length.

To get down, downclimb the route or walk up the ridge 20m to the raps above '

Move Like A Stud

' or if that is missing or in disrepair, downclimb the 4th class descent even higher.

A set of hexes and cams, heavy on the hands+ sizes if you want lots of gear. This crack/flake is thin in a few places and may require some attention to place good gear. Might not be a great beginenr climb
