Description
One of my favorites at Parks, my first long techy trad lead. Requires a 70m rope and small gear.Belayer can hang on one of the Elf Toes bolts by traversing right from the sloping gravel approach, just uphill of a large pine. Climb diagonally left on skimpy gear to the dike, then follow the feature up and slightly right to the large twin hanger anchor (no rings). Tricky placements are some distance apart, top stays wet late in the Spring.
Location
The first route on the Mountaineer's Wall. From Craig's Crack hike about 5 minutes along the base of the cliff. Scramble up some large, eroding blocks, follow the flat path for about 50', then as the trail starts downhill again break left up the loose gravel slide and set up behind the large pine. Just left of Elf Toes.
Protection
Standard rack to 3", multiple small cams & ball nuts. And a sling :-)
