Kestrel's Last Stand

Description

Start under the Great Roof. Up the arete that will enable you to clear the roof on its north side. Pull onto the upper face and enjoy the exposure! Bolts placed deliberately to allow ascending a left-facing dihedral just above the roof, or climb the face that the bolts are on. Similar difficulty, different styles of climbing.

A well-protected and very fun climb, named for the abundance of kestrel feathers found during that weekend that suggested a battle of the raptors.

Location

To the north (climber's right) of the Great Roof that Exacerbator goes to the south (left) of.

Protection

11 bolts, chain anchors. 70 m rope ideal, but you can downclimb the last few meters if you use a 60m.
