Peak Mountain 3

Redcoat Variation

FA Ken Nichols, 1980

Description

Starts the same as Boston Tea Party, then at the first ledge moves further back into the recess. From the Nichols guidebook, "Avoid the off-width crack by climbing the beautiful double cracks in the main inside corner above the dead tree."

Could be a good route, but needs to be cleaned. Lichen covering most of the route above the first ledge makes the rock slippery. A razor sharp bramble about halfway up is in just the right spot to be a real source of misery. 

Protection

Stoppers and cams to 4, doubles of cams 2-4 recommended
