Description:

This climb is positioned on the left-side arete of the Arrowhead formation, which sits directly above Dew Mound's Main Wall. Approach on climbers trail around the left side of the main wall to a ledge system with many spruce trees. 'Garvey Who' consists of a bouldery start, followed by a series of pumpy, steep pulls on awesome pockets. Chain Anchors. *Take care not to dislodge stones onto unsuspecting climbers below. There have been some close calls.

Descent Options:

Rappel with 60 meter rope.
