Description:

Begin in a left facing corner with bolts on the left wall. Continue up until you hit the large flake system. Undercling, lieback, and jam the flake all the way to the anchors. A fun route, but sometimes smelly due to bat/bird dung!

3 out of 5 stars Really Fun new

Fun, interesting climb. Felt easier than 10.b on TR, but I was on TR, so I can't say much.

2 out of 5 stars The Guillotine

This is maybe the best climb at Echo, certainly one of the most aesthetic. It's a featherbag at 5.10a though. The flake is juggy and the footholds are huge.
