Description Suggest change

Near the top right hand side of Sherwood Forest, an obvious right-facing corner leads up 40 feet to a pinnacle. Surmount this and place textbook gear in a horizontal, then make moderate moves to reach the first of 3 bolts, continuing to the top of the route.

[Eds. This route and its comments have been the site of a great deal of passionate and negative energy. Much of that has been deleted as it was a stain for the climbing community and for this site. Apologies to those who feel slighted. Some of the essential comments have been left. Please direct your energies (hopefully positive) elsewhere. Life is short. Do something fun!]

Protection Suggest change

A full set of cams from 0.5" to 3.5" and a set of tricams or stoppers to the top of the dihedral. The route starts off with a good #3 Camalot placement and climbs on good gear to the top of the tower, where one of several cams can be put in an excellent horizontal to the right. From there, 3 bolts with cold-shut hangers lead to a cold shut anchor at the top. A few longer slings are good to have for a section where the handcrack jogs right then back left.
