Nikki on the start of Pocket Protector!

Add Photo  Add Comment    Printer View

Description 

A nice warmup ladder for those days out on the Lake.

Begin on two obvious jugs about shoulder width apart and use pockets and blocks to climb the less than vertical face.

It's possible to topout through the shrubs, but a solid stand position just below the greenery facilitates a forward-facing dive back into the lake.


Location 

Just to the right of Gettin' High.


Protection 

Water.

Protect ya neck! The slab to the right of the start flares out prominently when levels are low, so double-check your holds before committing to laybacks, etc.
