Wake The Flake

Description

This is an exciting and airy pitch that climbs the golden hanging slab in the center of the cliff.

25' above the starting ledge is a small pine growing out of the cliff. Directly above this pine is a big right-facing corner capped by a big roof. Wake The Flake starts up this corner, via a surly little fingercrack through a bulge / roof, then traverses out right onto the slab to gain the hanging flake out there. Follow the flake until you're higher than the big roof in the corner out left. Step left into the corner above the roof and topout as seems logical.

Location

Wear The Flare

and Wake The Flake start in the same spot: on the left end of a small ledge system just left of the center, tallest section of the cliff. This ledge is 40 feet higher than the actual base of the cliff and is reached by an easy gully scramble.

Protection

Standard rack up to #3 Camalot. The traverse is fairly spicy but not that hard.

I think we left a slung horn anchor on top somewhere.
