Crabnebula

This line generally follows a dike just right of FOF’s hand crack, is very well protected, and is a good line for a 5.10 leader to push their ability.

It is possible to climb the meat of Crabnebula in one 170’ marathon pitch to a two bolt anchor, then scramble to the rappel tree. Pitching it out allows for better communication in cruxy areas:

P1: A sustained pitch. Make a committing move off the belay to a bolt up and left. Using holds on the arête, follow bolts around a bulge to a horizontal (pin), just right of FOF’s hand crack. Pull another bulge and follow bolts and a dike to a stance on the left (same as FOF). Build a gear anchor. (5.11 a/b) 120’

P2: Follow bolts straight up the slab until the angle eases. Belay at a two bolt anchor or continue up to the tree (5.10b) 100’

Begin at a small stance 200’ below the access ledge.

Bring a few medium sized cams and stoppers for a gear anchor. Many draws, including extendables.
