Description:

One of the most popular routes at Lower Scott. A runout beginning leads to good pro. Large holds exist until a crack crux move up high. A great route. First Ascent by Eric Forney.

4 out of 5 stars Bolt safety inspection tour

After we replaced the lead bolt on Teacup Arete, we top roped High Anxiety. Although it is rated at 5.7, I felt it much easier than, e.g. Arrowsmith at the Narrows. It is more vertical but the holds are so bomber. I'd say it is 5.6.
