Ascent Notes for: Whodunit - 5.9 Average Rating : 4.00/5

Alot of fun. Stay on route. A pitch or two after the chimney there is a short wide section. Bring a #4 sized camalot for this part. Don't try to go left or right here. You will end up off route. I went left and had a bit of more difficult slab climbing.

This one is worth recommending. Varied climbing with the first pitch being the crux- thin crack over a tiny roof (small stoppers). The exit of the chimney is probably the second crux, but not as difficult as imagined. A #4 protects it beautifully. Every pitch holds something interesting.

We did it with 6 pitches... swing lead, Al went first.

5.8 first pitch, 5.7 second pitch, 5.8 third pitch with a couple of 5.9 move... took a long fall while traversing the ledge. Got scraped up and bruised pretty good, but pushed through to the top. Al led from this point forward. Fourth pitch is the crux, particularly as a handhold fell off to make topping out the chimney roof a 5.9+ move. I ran out of steam by the fifth pitch because I didn't have lunch (squirrels stole it) so it was a blurr... probably 5.8, as is the 6th. Then it's a class 4 scramble to the top.

Fun for an easy route
