Melting Point 

This route has some really cool moves, but is not sustained at all. A tricky opening sequence leads to a long section of easy rock. The upper wall (bolts 5 through 7) is really good. Steep jug haul that makes this route.

Make sure to have a 60m rope for the rap. Otherwise, use the intermediate rap station just to the right for 2 rappels.

Good route, with good exposure and length. That being the reason I gave 2 stars. Otherwise the long expanse of easy moves detract.

Sort of decked on this route today. After clipping the first bolt, couldn't go straight up so I went 4-5 feet to the right like I have done many times before. I had just cleared the lip (probably 7-8 feet diagonally from the first bolt) when my right hand hold broke. The rope started catching probably a few feet off the ground, but I still hit with my left side. Luckily, I hit a few feet from the rock at the base so I am fine except for some bruises on my left arm, knee and hip. We left the draw on the first bolt and headed home... Just a heads up for others who like going to the right after the first bolt like me... you are going to be missing a hold there!

Did this route for the first time yesterday, Friday the 13th, and noticed that the first bolt is placed just above a lip so your biner levers across the edge. One of the higher bolts (the 2nd?) had a similar placement. In both cases, threading a sling through the hanger looked better than clipping directly.

Nice climb, though.

60m rope doesn't quite make it. It's short like 3 feet. It was close enough that I could get down by grabbing the rope on the other end and lowering myself the last 3 feet without the ATC. This could be a classic climb if it wasn't for the horrible bolts on it. The second bolt is one of those old bolts that doesn't have a high strength rating. Another bolt spins (not good). And the first bolt on the second crux is barely out of reach from the comfortable ledge after the long run-out. I recommend putting another bolt before it, or you could find somewhere to place some pro. After the second crux, the only protection you have is 2 old pitons. The first one looks ok, but the second looks pretty sketchy!! The top anchors look kind of bad too, but they work. I would recommend changing them, but since I've never put in bolts nor do I have the equipment, I can't do it. Overall awesome climb. It would be a classic if it had better protection!

Rappelled this with two ropes today. The anchors are the highest on the wall so I don't think a 60 would cut it.

I fail to distinguish this route from "Clastic Cling" (10d).

Clastic Cling is the line just to the right. It joins Melting Point just after the final roof. Climbs very similarly to MP but is harder to get off the deck.

You can rappel (but not lower) with a 60.

The intended start on the leaning rail just underneath the right of the first bolt gives the full 5.10b rating. Starting several feet left leads to slightly easier holds but requires you to traverse under the bolt. Either way a stick clip is recommended.
