Description Suggest change

This really fun line, front and center on the crag, has lots of the typical dolomite features, pockets, dishes, edges, and flakes. But what sets this line apart is the cool blade at the top of the route. The position and exposure while hand traversing the blade are amazing! Most of the climbing is 5.9ish, with some occasional 5.10, and just a couple spots of 5.11.

Location Suggest change

Bow Wave is easily distinguishable due to the large blade/flake system at the top of the route. It's just a few minutes walk along the base from the Moderate Wall.

Protection Suggest change

21 bolts. Descend by rappelling the route to the right. There are two stations so you can do it with one rope.
