Description
This is possibly the most asthetic splitter offwidth in Long Canyon.
Pitch one starts with some choss and goes into the obvious splitter offwidth ending on a small ledge. 120' with a width of 5" to 9". (Graded 5.12-?, but more like standard 5.11) 3 bolt anchor
Pitch two continues up the ever widening splitter ending on a good ledge at the obvious sqaure pod. 100' with a width of 9" to 12". (5.10) 2 bolt anchor. (Established ground-up onsight.)
Pitch three starts with sidwinding, then gets a bit tighter for the remainder of the pitch... drops down to BD 7s, then BD 6s, then the crux which is near the top is super tight BD 6s. Bring a couple finger and tips sized gear that can be placed in some horizontals, this will save on the large gear. I believe the pitch was around 120'. Nice ledge 15 feet below true summit with a two bolt anchor. Easy scrambling to the top from there. 5.11
