Chesnutt Arete

A slightly sandbagged face climb just left of an arete that features safe, but widely spaced bolts and a very intense crux at the last bolt.

Reach high for the start holds and follow big pulls between good pockets and knobs until the angle lessens. A few balancy moves through a pebbly band lead to more vertical terrain with crisp patina edges that end just before the last bolt. Grab a shake, then pinch past the crux on some subtle, protruding bumps to the chains.

On the right side of the wall before a small gully.

Bolts and a two bolt anchor.
