Description

The first pitch (left of Funny Bone) is the 5.9 approach to one of the better single pitches of 5.11 climbing on Lemmon. Climbing 'Funny Bone' to the anchors then traversing left to the next anchor is also an option. The start of the second pitch immediately gets your attention with technical, delicate corner moves that are hard to find on the mountain. The style changes a bit after surmounting the bulge, but the exposure and the fun don't stop until the bolts do. Most belay the second after lowering to the ledge the pitch starts on.

Location

second pitch can be seen above & to the right of Cryptographer

Protection

16 draws even with 70M rope, lower to anchor at the ledge, tie in, pull rope from top anchor, feed rope through and then lower to ground
