Satan's Alley

Description

With outstanding rock and climbing, this line suffers only from the brevity of its crux—a V9-ish crimping exam clearing the obvious low bulge. Above, the rock and movement remain excellent and entertaining, though fairly trivial relative to the line’s overall difficulty.

Begin from the ledge, making easy moves to reach the bulge. Long cranks between flat edges and small, incut sidepulls leads to a pair of pockets at the fourth bolt. The climbing eases above, following the leaning, detached pillar to a tricky slab exit.

Location

This is the third route from the left end of the cliff, or the next route left of

Rum-Tum-Tuggernaughts

.

Protection

6B to 2BA. A stick clip is mandatory. Consider extending the third bolt, or start with it pre-clipped.
