Description

The first 2 bolts of climbing consists of a delicate and elegant lie-backing and smearing up a steep slab. Reach a great rest just before the third bolt, and reach the anchors after some bizarre, harder-than -they-look moves on and just to the right of the arete feature.

I thought this was best route that I tried at the crag (my partner agreed). It isn't that much harder than the other 5.10s on the Platypus (though it is harder), and is well protected where it is difficult, so go for it!

Location

The left of the two routes on the North Face. See Platypus area description.

Protection

3 bolts to a 2-bolt anchor. Use the "Moss Man" anchors if you need to rappel.
