new route on finktion wall

Here's a good shot of the route, Deadbolt, from the trail. The right side of Finktion Wall is visible behind them.

The past wet week made for a slushy hike in but this route, just finished today, was perfect in the warm sun.

This is the last bit of easy crack to the pine tree.

This is the final move after sustained consistant moves.

Fine winter day with great company made this a fitting end to the climbing. Great afternoon sun in February.

Looked good at the crux

We had a warm day in the sun, but this little nook stayed shady all day. Nice job on the FA.

Just after this move, you can rest. Then work your way to the left towards the arete.

If you go straight up from the first bolt it is more like a 10 rating. Beta: go left immediately above first bolt to reach the arete.

Roof looks intimidatingly loose from below. But its fairly solid.
