Chessboard

Description

Start on an obvious shallow crimp rail with two hands approx. 4 feet off the ground with a high right foot. Pull hard as you blast up several feet to another crimp rail with a painfully sharp edge. Match both hands to this rail, maybe change feet, then blast, yet again, up and left to another small hold. Hang on tight as you pull through with your right hand to a large finale of a hold. To get your heart rate up and round out the exercise, continue left and onto the traverse. Painful and short.

Location

Just a few feet south ("climber's right) of the starting holds of the long traverse, on an obvious match-able crimp edge.

Protection

One pad.
