Washington Hard Man

This beautiful wide splitter is currently the only route at raptor ridge. Includes some fun fist jams, a bit of offwidth, and small bulge. You have to be a real Washington hard man to make the 3.5 mile approach for this climb...

Once you reach Raptor Ridge lookout, continue on the main trail instead of turning left towards the overlook. Walk on the main trail for about one minute and you'll see the crack on your right about thirty feet off the trail. It should be obvious as it is the only clean bit of rock in the area.

All you need are 2 - 3 #3 C4s and a #4. Anchor on the tree at the top of the climb (double length slings). You can also walk around and set up a toprope.
