Description As noted in the name, a balancy mantle move is the crux in this excellent route.
Start below a left-arching overlap. Smear up to the overlap and clip a bolt above to protect the mantle move. Surmount the overlap and climb the slabby face to the top.
Location Starts just right of Deprived Child, a short distance from the bottom of the descent gully.
Protection Four bolts, bolted anchors.

| There is also a "Mickey's Mantle" .10a at Palisades,AL. Any connection? Does Crowder have the FA of that one as well? |

| Must do route if you're going to Currahee. Great route, and not very hard. Good for breaking into the 10's on lead. |
