Travis rappelling down this classic pitch.


Description 

A very long corner. This pitch is super classic even thought it has some preamble to it that isn't very fun. Start up the blocky finish, gain the rambling wavy corner and enjoy it to the top. Sometimes the last move to the anchor can be pretty wet.

The first time I was on this climb I was just learning how to trad climb and I placed well over 18 pieces of gear, the next time I was on it I placed 8.

It has a 10c second pitch that I haven't climbed, so I'm not describing it.


Location 

The big left facing corner left of Conneticut Cracks, Old Town, and London Bridges.


Protection 

Gig stnd. rack, lots of runners.

Why is this showing as a 5.7?

probably because the contributor only described the 1st pitch, but he did say the 2nd pitch goes at 5.10
