Description 

Haribangers shares the same start with Caging the Zealot. Depart left and onto the shoulder of the pillar after Zealot's fifth bolt. Gain a nice ledge with a rap anchor and belay from here.

Haribangers casts off just left of the belay, it starts off insecure on shallow edges and demands adequate strength. Climb the arete past two bolts until you reach a more useful hold, Clip the third bolt and rock onto the face. Side pulls, edges, and a round pinch or two follow the sharp ridge up and right to a balancing stance. Clip and climb past three more bolts and save your power for the final moves to the anchor. Hang on and make that clip!

Start and stay on the right side of the arete for the full .11 rating.

Location 

Haribangers is high above a left leaning pillar in the middle of the Prophesy Wall.
Its most easily recognized by its steep, and proud varnished arete.

Protection 

Six bolts plus anchor.
