Description Suggest change

CHD is noted by Dick Williams as a top pitch to a variety of routes including the notable Ants' Line(5.9) and Sleepwalk, an underrated slab/arete. It climbs from the Ants Line bolted anchor upwards and right through a steep face filled with jugs and other positive holds. The rock quality is outstanding and gear is abundant in all the right places.

Location Suggest change

Climb the first pitch of Sleepwalk or Ants' Line. From the double-bolt anchor stance, angle up and right pulling on steep holds. The route goes up the obvious face/fault that is basically above Ants' Line.

Protection Suggest change

A standard rack should get you through, but double the smaller pieces (BD.3-1) if linking this with Sleepwalk (5.7). A fair number of 60cm runners eliminated rope drag with the Sleepwalk/CHD link up.
