Description Suggest change

Means: "a cat distilled from the sap of a lias tree."

Excellence on edges. Pull through sequency seams and lift on micro ledges until you land the milk jug about 3/4 of the way up. Welcome to today's crux: reach/stretch/shoulder lift/throw to an awful awful potato chip or fall in shame and walk on home, boy.

Wafer thin after dinner climbers can cheat the crux using heinous, off-camber intermediate crimpers. Fatties just have to (wo)man up and dyno that mutha. Three star brilliance either way.

Location Suggest change

Middle of the left (south) main wall of Symplegades. Just a couple of climbs to the right of the obvious "Homo Sapiens." Marked in blue paint.

Protection Suggest change

Thirteen-ish draws, some balls, and a fresh katsaplias or two. Two-bolt/1 'biner anchor finishes the deal.
