Description
There isn't really any aid on the route but I top-rope soloed this climb and pulled on a draw at the crux, so I'll leave it at 5.10+ A0 until I lead it and get a better idea. Let me know if you know the real name, who did the FA, or if you lead it and get a better idea of the difficulty. I just felt like adding the furthest left (Spine Line) and furthest right (this one) climbs to start.
This climb has a variety of starts and climbs into a beautiful, clean corner with a finger crack, finishing with an easier corner and some knobs high up. The first and last pitches are relatively easy, while the second pitch has a difficult bolt protected crux where the corner closes off and turns into a roof.
P1: This pitch climbs past the small pine tree, up large blocks and to a three bolt anchor at the start of the corner. Choose any variation, including a traverse in from the east or ascending a number of ways from below.
P2: Climb the corner to the roof, pulling this roof if the crux and leads to another two bolt anchor. There's a bolt under it but a larger cam fits above the bolt under the roof. A clean corner, delicate slab, and a wild move over the left side of the roof makes this pitch an exciting one!
P3: From the bolts make your way up the left-facing corners and onto to the knobby face beyond.
P3 Variation: Climb up easy but runout knobs above the belay, slinging them as you go.
