Description 

if you like heady arete climbs this is it. standard 25ft of waterfall climbing to the arete proper. bouldery start with deadpionts, slaps, gas pockets, credit card crimping and layback smears. if you get on this route and wonder why there are 2 bolts and a perfectly good crack 3ft to the right, its because to do the arete as an arete at no point can you reach over and place gear. expect delicate, reachy and balancy moves. all the gear is in good horizontals . i wouldnt say its runout but if you peel off its gonna be big, but safe

Location 

way down on the left between Rising Sun and Ninja Warrior. the right side of the arete

Protection
