Squeeze Play

Description

Squeeze Play is a beefed up version of "Start of Something Good" which, due to cool movement on its upper 2/3rds, should perhaps be named "Start of Something Even Better". It combines the difficult initial moves of "Start of Something Good" with, immediately after, a harder crux of its own: a traverse right on small slopers ending in a good mail-slot jug. The heinous moves are well-worth it though, because what follows is arguably the best 5.11 face climbing Red Wing has to offer. Did you like climbing the upper part of "Start of Something Good"? Well, in case you did, this one is more difficult, more sustained, more fun. Never mind the loose rock -- the moves are killer! Go, suffer through the first three bolts if only to experience the joy of climbing up higher. A great alternative on crowded days at Winter Wall: there's hardly anybody ever on this route.
