Location Suggest change

On the west face of The Hatchery in the First Corridor. The route begins downhill from where the base of the canyon slopes sharply downward and uphill from the bush. "Before The Storm" is the 7th line of bolts from the gap between the Egg & the Hatchery, as of March 2013. A 60 m rope will do.

Description Suggest change

"Before The Storm" is located in the First Corridor and is the fifth line of bolts on the west (left) side of the narrow shaded canyon formed by the Elephant Head & the Hatchery. "Before The Storm" begins just downhill from where the base of the corridor slopes sharply downward, and uphill from the bush growing in the narrow portion of the corridor. Face climb up past three bolts to a bulge. Move up and right and over the bulge. Above the bulge the angle eases and numerous pockets lead up and slightly right to the top.

Protection Suggest change

13 bolts & a anchor with mussy hooks.
