Dru Posted September 8, 2003 Posted September 8, 2003 Has anyone ever done it? I looked at it last year and it looked quite steep for 10b. Also I could not figure out where the route went after the 3rd bolt. Any beta? I might try it this fall. Quote
Peter_Puget Posted September 8, 2003 Posted September 8, 2003 (edited) I have climbed that route. You climb past some bolts and then move left thru the wild "huecos." If I remember correctly the first clip is a bit of a reach. You then climb left (you can use slings for pro) you climb out of a hole and at first it is a bit intimidating because you can't see the bolt. After clipping the last bolt it is a long reach virtually tr'd to the top. The route is a bit of a one move wonder but still fun. Rock a bit grainy. It is not a hard 10b. Secret beta is go for it at the top. Seond beta is it is a bit strenuous but you can get a no hands rest in the womb so you can depump before the crux PP Edited September 8, 2003 by Peter_Puget Quote

When I did it (before it was in a guide), folks were saying it was 5.10d and it seemed reachy/strenuous. Not at all bad (probably **) for a short, bolted line. Quote
Cpt.Caveman Posted September 11, 2003 Posted September 11, 2003 It's a nice route. Big jugs (*)(*) but still kinda hard. Quote
