Hair and Roses

FA Michael Covington, Charlotte Fox, Angela Donini - Fall 2009
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

A variable crack in the back of an open book. Wide to start, then goes to tips, then an incut hand crack.

From the top of the crack, head right up the ramp to find the anchor bolts. NOTE: this upper ramp has been sloughing off a fair amount of loose rock, so try to clear the shooting gallery of pedestrians before approaching or using the anchor.

Reportedly, the FA only used one cam, the rest was done on nuts and hexes.

Location

On the south side of the crag, about 40 feet around the corner left of Turdus Interruptus.

A new plaque marks the route's base (the original one disappeared).

Protection

Almost-sub-tips (0 or 00 C3?) to gold camalots. Anchor bolts off to the right (which are not visible from the base).
