Description:

Two pitches of forgettable easier climbing reaches the huge ledge at the base of the infamous roof. Climb easily to the base of the roof(don't place until just below it to avoid rope drag, and then get 1 or 2 pieces in), pull it, and climb the steep face above.

Red Point Red Point ascent by: gblauer on 2012-06-17 (View Climbing Log)

5 out of 5 stars I was tired and unhappy on P1/2

Cranky, bored, wasn't enjoying the climb at all. But, P3 put me in the best of moods. I love leading P3. That move out under the roof, the knee bar, the casual climbing. Shame on you if you get pumped on this climb. There are gigantic feet everywhere. Just stand up and reach for the next jug. Big Smiles after P3.
