Reckless Driving

Description

Another exercise in continuous small hold climbing. This route begins at the end of pitch one of

Playing on the Freeway

. The best way to do this route is to combine it with the first pitch of Playing on the Freeway. Due to the short nature of the pitches, it is also possible to entirely skip the bolted belay and combine both pitches into a single long pitch (best value for the money).

Pitch 1: Do the first pitch of

Playing on the Freeway

(11c) and belay at the bolted anchor (or continue on for a more challenging overall pitch).

Pitch 2: Follow bolts up and slightly right, then back slightly left, ultimately joining David where it comes onto the face from the arete. This section is characterized by continuous thin edging/smearing on slightly loose rock. Do it ten times and you'll probably do it ten different ways due to the changing nature of the holds.
