Description
This line is either a 5.10 solo or toprope.
An awesome, bouldery move down low pulling onto the arete (over sloping ground and a pile of cheater stones) is the physical crux, but the top is what packs the punch. I've onsight freesoloed several 5.9s and 10s, particularly in Eldorado Canyon, Colo., and I had to take a long pause and some big breaths before the sequential, steep-slab finish on this one.
This route provided one of my most rewarding experiences during my four-day visit, but I won't say I'm going to climb it again any time soon.
