stef humping, er I mean seconding Rusty's


Description 

This route begins in an obvious flared chimney. Climb the chimney and work out a large roof via the splitter 4" crack. Pull the roof and jam the crack until it ends at a ledge. From the ledge climb the steep and exposed face to a set of ring anchors.


Location 

From the trail turn right. The route is located in the main area just past the closures.


Protection 

Standard rack up to a #4 WC Friend. An old-sized #3.5 camalot is nice for the crack above the roof. The face section accepts mainly finger size and smaller.

Excellent! The moves are all there if you can get a good jam high enough to place your feet well. Maybe next time I will . . .
