| Good work! I always dreamed about this problem, but a HUGE boulder used to make it completely unclimbable. However, during the crazy Duluth flooding, the boulder somehow either exploded or made its way to Superior. I remember the sit start being super crazy sharp and hard. Just an FYI, the section labeled the Sanctuary here is not the "actual" sanctuary. The Confederate Wall and the Rock Bridge make up the "real" Sanctuary. The others boulders are on the next river over. Cleaning this up online will help avoid confusion. |

| I will work on cleaning this page up. Been meaning to do it for a couple years. Nice work Tyler |

| Did you guys try finishing straight up the face at all instead of exiting to the right? I think it might add a grade or two. |

| I looked at the line going direct but it seemed to be really contrived.. I think the only true "line" left to climb would be climbing out the prow then finishing on the highball chose finish.. |

| I worked the direct finish yesterday and it didnt seem too contrived. Found a cool knee bar that helped quite a bit. |

| It is worth mentioning that this problem is very doable without that foothold. ;) |

| Little little footholds to the right, then when u get to the burly left crimp, bump up with the right. When u hit the left ledge, just let the left foot go off tje start hold otherwise it will pop off. Then with a strong left lock move the right up. Then u are home |

| It is worth noting that without Tyler's foresight, i wouldn't have tried this route more than 50 times |
