Description:

Climb the huge dihedral in the uberfall with a tree growing about 15 feet up. Traverse out the corner under the roof to an optional belay on the face (back up the pins, #3 Camalot useful here). The second pitch climbs a beautiful clean face to the top of the cliff. Walk off at the uberfall, and can be done in one long pitch.

5 out of 5 stars Led First Two Pitches

Great climb. Easy, well protected. A 60m rope is just barely long enough to rap to the ground from the 2nd belay station.

Second Second ascent by: Normanras on 2011-12-23 (View Climbing Log)

4 out of 5 stars Classic climb

Protected and juggy beginning into an open and exposed second half. Did it in one pitch, no falls. First really exposed route which started getting to my head, but completed it. Good fun. Highly recommended.

4 out of 5 stars Fun but polished

Easy, well protected climbing. The second half is way better than the first. The first half is polished and greasy.

4 out of 5 stars ~

First time going up the second half. It was surprisingly more fun than the second. Won't miss it again.
