The Bloodline
Description
Begin at the same spot as for
Red Cross
(5.12a) and clip the first bolt for that route. Traverse left past two more bolts until reaching the base of the left-slanting seam. One more bolt and a piton are at the base of the seam (11c to this point). Brilliant climbing on exquisite rock exists to the top. You will encounter a distinct crux (12) half way up the seam where a fixed #1 camalot is located. An ancient cactus is located on the ledge where the route ends. Maneuvering around the plant to avoid being pricked requires extra care; especially for the second!
Descend to the top of the rap anchor for
Jamaican Bobsled
.
Easily 5 out of 5 stars!!!
Protection
Camming units to 1", small to medium stoppers, and QD's for four bolts. Medium cams are needed for an anchor.
