Orpheus

Description

Start on the big hueco (LH) and sloper (RH) and climb up the steep wall on a variety of interesting crimps.

Location

It’s basically underneath Theatre of the Absurd. Approach from the frontside bathrooms, taking the trail toward the Asylum. Before the path goes behind the Asylum, take a right fork to the front of the Asylum. Walk over a pedestrian bridge and then another 50 ft or so to a left hand turnoff that deposits you at a picnic slab (no table or awning). From there look for a tunnel between two boulders and go through (toss pads over the top, they won’t fit without dragging hard in the dirt). This climbs the right side of the heavily chalked boulder. Eurydice (V9ish) starts on a beautiful crimp shelf to the left and traverses into the upper moves of Orpheus.

Protection

2-3 pads. Flat landing
