Keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment

Description This climb has a bit of variety. It starts on a slight overhang then it's all face climbing after that. If you want a real challenge, hit up Eagle's Talons (5.12) on the short face above your anchor.
Location Starts directly to the right of Icarus. (It's the first bolted line to the right of the dihedral.)

| King of Pain is the 5.9+ R seam to face with an old bolt about 10 feet right of Icarus. I'd guess about 60 feet long. It can be toproped once you do Icarus.

(Icarus is not on this topo but it's the 11a corner 6' right of Masterpieces. A circled X originally meant a bolt with no hanger - some have hangers now. ) |
