Description:

This route is recommended for experienced 5.10 leaders. Begin 15' left of 'Broken Bit'. Jam an awkward left-facing corner (5.9+), passing a fixed pin and a few bolts. Move up and right to a small stance on a pedestal. Crank on thin edges (fixed pin), then follow a steepening ramp, passing 3 more bolts. Move left, making exposed moves up and around an arete to chain anchors. This was the first route completed at Dew Mound. *Dew Mound is an alpine area with loads of loose rock. It is suggested to wear a helmet, and be aware of other climbers above and below you at all times.
