Description Suggest change

A very, very thin slab, that looked appealing as I hiked past it on the way to Plumb Line.

It starts with an easy stretch to the first bolt. Then it works past a small overlap to the second bolt. Then two more closely-drilled bolts protect a very thin and chickenhead-less stretch. Razor flakes and fingertip crystals is all that you have to work with.

After the last bolt a thin seam on the left allows you to work a very committing lieback up through the final tough sequence, until you can get some fingertips in the seam.

The crux seemed to be right around bolt #4.

Caveat: my rating is probably not accurate, as I only climbed it once in the sun on a warm day. If anyone else has info, please post it.

Location Suggest change

About thirty-seconds west of Barefoot in Barbados, easily recognizable by the four closely-spaced, reddish bolt hangers.

Protection Suggest change

4 draws and two for the anchors.
