AKAAKAA - Also Known As a Kick Ass Arete

Description

The off width looks hideous but you don't ever have to go OW on it, you can pleasantly stem the whole thing @ 5.8 or you can climb the left side and eliminate the stemming for an arete type experience (hence the name) at 5.10-.  Easy access TRS anchors with a protection anchor at the top, a cordelette or a long piece of webbing comes in handy.   This route now has steel lowering carabiners.

PLEASE DON'T STEAL THEM!!

Location

Obvious varnished left facing dihedral with a horrible looking off width crack in it.

Protection

Bolts - Rings - Lowering Carabiners   (9-21-21)
