Description
Start below the overhanging arete crest of the Minas Morgul tower. A single bolt helps protect the difficult opening moves and a nut helps protect the bulge move onto the crest of the arete. We tried to set this to go through the roof of the arete, but it was forced and MUCH harder than the rest of the climb. Once on the arete crest, stay on the crest using the vertical crack around to the right for gear. Have a 0.5-0.75 range cam ready for a hidden horizontal that will help protect moves to the first bolt. Climb through the still chossy ledge (we will work to clean this up better on our next ascent), past another bolt and get into the crimpy and overhanging crux of the climb, protected by bolts. Easier ground with horizontal and vertical crack placements takes you to the anchors.
