Description

Start by the tree at the large crack to the right of El Throatchoker Grande. This is the rightmost route on the North face.

Move up the crack placing gear. At the top of the crack, whimper a bit, find some tricky pro, and move up the blank-looking face to a ledge with some large broken blocks. Continue up along the blocks to a series of bolts. The bolts lead to a ramp and then head up and right. A few pieces of gear can be placed between the bolts as needed. Toward the end of the pitch head toward the arete on the right and pull the crux. Finish at the anchor for Centipede Corner.

Descent: Rap down Centipede Corner. A 60m rope is just long enough with rope stretch to get down. If you come up short you can swing to the right a bit and then scramble down.

Location

Just right of El Throatchoker Grande. See overview photo.
