BETA PHOTO: Fool's Game


Description 

Fool's Game is located on the right side of the Prow area, in the last big right-facing corner. First climb a short pillar with a finger crack in it (shared with Mayflower) and then move straight ahead and climb the right-facing corner. Tough moves if you take the corner straight on. Above, some off-fingers stuff makes for surprisingly interesting climbing to the rim.


Protection 

Nuts, small to #3 Camalot sized cams.

NOT your straight forward climb. Used almost every trick in my bag to get up this one. Makes for a stout lead.

My first lead at PF. Why because it is probably the least likely crack at the Forks. I am too much a face climber.
It was GREAT!!!!

Felt more like 10b to onsite... but an excellent route, very diverse.
