Description Suggest change

"That's going to leave a mark." The moves were fun, but one key jam was a little sharp. This was the one climb in J-tree (I did 92 routes on this past trip) that made me wish I'd taped up a little. My non-taping parnter and I had matching dents/scratches after the pitch.

Just left of the ever-popular pitches of Calcutta & Bombay there is a vertical crack going up 5 Meters to a roof, which you can jam and stem up and right to get through. Climb up and over this (crux, decent pro) and finish on easier rock to the top of the wall.

Were it not for the grit and sharpness of a few moves, I'd give it 2 stars. Honestly, this route would clean up with some traffic, but it doesn't get any.

A set of nuts and cams. Tricams go well too.
