Ascent Notes for: Umbilical Cord - 5.8 Average Rating : 3.13/5

This was warm-up. Interesting, but slabbier than I prefer. The bridge makes for a nice photo-op.

Can make a hard start by using the crack left of normal ( easy start ). This adds more fun. Good feet on the climb. A bit slabby on the last 2 bolts. Use runners on the lower bolts to reduce rope drag.

That day it was windy on the face and the rope was getting blown in to the cracks and features making it hard to belay.

Climbed before April 16, 2009. This is a fun climb, and one of the taller ones out in The Cemetery. A little pumpy near the end.

fun route. a little run out to the second bolt but the climbing is really easy.

This is a fun route. Be careful though. Definitely exposed. To make more fun, about half way switch to the 5.9 route.
