Description

P1 ascend to the obvious corner on two studs and thin aid. I needed a toucan and two large peckers to do this, as well as a number of lost arrows and baby angles. The crux is about 35 feet off the ground and your looking at a substantial bit of that air being eaten if a piece pops… you might deck. Don’t worry though… the ground will break your fall. After the pins the crack starts to open up. Go about 160 feet to a really nasty loose block… clip a bolt to get around it then climb up the alcove and onto the slab to the anchor out right.

P2 climb through a chimney then onto a big slab. IT steepens as you go higher. Clip two bolts to get to the summit chimney. Take one set of friends from 2-6.

Location

Obvious corner on the north face

Protection

3 sets friends #1-4 with extra #1’s and #1.5’s. I used two baby angles, two mid size lost arrows, a couple of large peckers and a toucan… those things sink to the hilt, but in what?
