Comments: Rope drag can be bad once past the roof, so do your best to runner gear beneath and through the roof.

Comments: Looks like a cool line, but Grade IV for a 3 pitch climb???

Comments: Here are my thoughts after climbing the Obelisk.

  • This is a phenomenal climb, and rounds out 3 great routes on the Obelisk Pillar.
  • The traverse from Pervertical is a bit tricky and committing. The bolt is where you want to start heading left. I will leave it at that as part of the fun of leading that pitch is figuring it out.
  • Both the thin hands pitch and the offwidth pitch warrant a 5.11 rating.
  • One new #5 Camalot with other gear in the small crack in the offwidth works great.

Comments: Thanks, Jason, looking forward to the new guide.

For those of us too lazy to pre-order, can you please let us know when the books are actually available in-store.

Thanks!

Comments: Just a heads up to those attempting/belaying below the route: the final jug near the ancors is definitely loose. I felt it flex as I climbed to the anchors and could wiggle it as I was lowering off and inspecting furhter. Be careful, and have the belayer be out of the way. It is a pretty sizeable chunk of rock.

Comments: Can anyone attest to the age of these bolts? A number of them are spinners and not very confidence inspiring.

Super cool line, would love to see some bomber bolts replacing the old ones.
