Description
The Olympic Free Style Goat Toss (Rules specify only that both hands on must be in contact with the horns and both feet must be on the ground when the goat is launched. The set-up, pivots, and choice of throw are open, but no one tosses underhand these days) begins in a short, left facing, pegmatite dihedral just right of the two pitch dihedral route, Capra Diem. Chase a line of jugs through two roof systems to a fingery crux pulling over the second roof (5.11). We found that without using two or three long slings below each roof that rope drag could be significant for someone top-roping. Alternatively, it is possible to "back-unclip" before pulling the second roof to reduce drag. Lowering from the top was a bit of a chore without the slings. The rock on Goat Toss is solid, clean, and the pro just about right. Movement through the roofs is interesting with the pump showing up just in time for the crux. All in all, one of the better lines on Goat Rock. And, greased horns are strictly forbidden by the IOGC.
