Description

Interesting moves the whole way.

Start on right edge of small gully below the two-bolt anchor which is between the bolt anchor for the route "Obelix" and the top bolt anchor for the route "Right Edge".

Roughly straight to the top anchor, over at least one bulge along the way.

warning

: The rock on and near this route has not been climbed much yet, and some of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber.

FA first ascent? The listing of a Top-Rope first ascent does not imply that top-roping is the "appropriate" style for this route. If some party bolts this route and leads it and supplies a careful description of the size and metal-composition of the bolts and hangers - (by posting an Improve This Page or a Comment below) -- they wlll be given first-rank FA on this page. Also they can supply their own name for this climb (which is why currently this route has a "generic" name, awaiting installation of hardware).

Location

Below the two-bolt anchor which is between the bolt anchor for the route "Obelix" and the top bolt anchor for the route "Right Edge".

Protection

Top anchor is 2-bolts-connected-with chain, with two carabiners.

. . (All bolts + upper hanger are 304 Stainless steel, 3/8 inch, but lower hanger, carabiners, chain, and quick-links are plated steel - installed in 2017).

No intermediate bolts for leading as of 2018.

In case anchor hardware is damaged or missing or otherwise inadequate, recommend to carry a few feet of 8mm climbing accessory cord and at least one quick-link.

Top-Roping: Top anchor could be reached by leading the route "Obelix" or the route "Right Edge".

Protection for Trad leading is unknown and likely inadequate.
