Onsight Onsight ascent by: Armchair on 2010-08-21 (View Climbing Log)

3 out of 5 stars not .11c

Got the onsight. Helps to be tall at the crux. Pretty sure new guide calls this 11a.

2 out of 5 stars meh

I climbed this on the old glue in bolts. I wouldn't recommend it; there's a pretty good runout between 2 and 3 (unless you're into that). I also thought the anchors were tough as hell to clip, which is annoying because the rest of the climb was mindless jugging. Wouldn't climb it again.

4 out of 5 stars fun

I like this route because of the big reach from an undercling after the first clip. I am pretty tall, but still had trouble sticking it. I would like to see how a shorter climber puzzles it out. Pretty easy slab (~5.8) from there.

4 out of 5 stars slabby arete

The crux is the slabby bit at the bottom. One or two 10- moves followed by 5.8 climbing to the anchors. The first clip is a little sketchy if you are short.
