big gear and anchors Top roping would require a trad anchor, the anchors will get the rope stuck on the flakes so be very careful of the several flakes.

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.
