Description:

you can either access the upper (good) 10- pitche from the top, or do a 5.7 dihedral pitch and to weird 8 crack pitch from the bottom to access the rest. The meat of this climb is the last pitche. It starts as 5.9 nice steep dihedral that ends on a pedestal. From here, look in awe at the roof above and wonder how it's only 10-. Place some gear about 1/2 way out the roof and get horizontal. Pull the roof and continue up the weakness/crack system on the overhanging headwall to the top. Total fun guaranteed or your money back.

4 out of 5 stars One of Shortoff's best (last pitch)

Did serentripitous start. The first two pitches are nothing too special. Last pitch is phenominal. The corner to the top of the pedestal is harder than 5.9 IMO but 5.10b is spot on for the roof. I came off pulling the roof and took a pretty good ride. After climbing back up to the pedestal, I figured out how to keep my feet from cutting and finished the route.
