Description

Start at a 2-bolt belay anchor just up and right of the starting anchor for Total Eclipse. This is the same anchor as for Nick of Time.

The first pitch offers very high-quality, technical moves, climbing onto side-pull cracks, all the way up the steep wall. Sustained! 5.11a/b, 95', 11 bolts.

The second pitch is easier but offers quality, big-feature climbing. 5.9, 55', 5-6 bolts.

All the way up on this climb, you will find loads of fun and challenging climbing. It makes you think!

It is called Sidekick for good reasons that will be obvious as you climb the route!

Descent: 2 rappels with a 60m rope.

Location

This route is just right of

Total Eclipse

and left of the

Nick Of Time

corner on the east side of Tonnere Tower. Route #5 in the ?beta photo?.

Protection

Pitch 1: 2-bolt belay anchor at the start, then 11 bolts to a 2-bolt top anchor.

Pitch 2: 5-6 bolts to a 2-bolt top anchor.

Trad climbers can skip some of the bolts and place gear on the route if they so desire.
