Onsight Onsight ascent by: theresister on 2012-10-20 (View Climbing Log)

4 out of 5 stars nice hard lieback at the top.

We climbed up to the Pear on another route and walked down the ramp under the Pear. I led the last 20ft to get to the anchor chains for Superpseudomasochisticexpeealodochous. I was trying to stay on the face and it was 5.10 face. 5.9 lieback in the crack. One of the hardest short leads I've done.

Top Rope Top Rope ascent by: asellers98 on 2012-10-20 (View Climbing Log)

4 out of 5 stars Loved this route

You have a good view of the whole area as you climb. Would be an awesome lead I will do in the future. I wasn't able to get to the hard crack above due to the top rope getting stuckon flakes. So in order to top rope it, I would put a piece in the top crack to redirect the belay ropeto keep the rope out of the flake. The part I climbed was a 5.6+, but I was told the crack was a 5.10 crack when they setup the top rope.
