Pulling through the roofish-feature during a brief...

Description 

An extension to Blue Shadows. Once you reach the anchor on Blue Shadows, clip a draw to the left chain (to reduce drag later) and continue up and left. Getting to a couple of good underclings leading to a great side pull is the crux. Then bust through the roofish-feature involving a couple steep moves. Once above the roof, continue up on the slab to the anchor.

Location 

Climb Blue Shadows and then keep going for maximum fun.

Protection 

4 bolts on the extension--12 total to a two-bolt anchor with carabiners. A 60m rope is advised. Watch out with a 50m rope--it may just barely make it.
