Description Suggest change

This link-up has everything a 5.6 climber may not be looking for including a runout start, finicky gear, and a bit of exposure. Begin as for the direct start to Too Much Fun, stepping off a block onto a low angle rock face. Tiptoe up this a ways to an inobvious but key 2.0 Tri-cam placement -- nothing else fits here -- and continue to almost to the base of the Too Much Fun Corner over sparse gear. Then thumb your nose at the TMF crux and traverse right following a thin horizontal to the arete that forms the left side of the Washboard face. Straddle this for a few moves -- nice exposure but not a lot of gear -- and then punch it to the belay ledge.

Location Suggest change

Begin just right of the traditional Too Much Fun/Blue Chock start where a triangular block that just out of the ground. Pull onto the cliff then step right and tiptoe up the face.

Protection Suggest change

Thin nuts to medium cams plus belay anchor gear for Washboard. A 2.0 Tri-cam tames an otherwise X-rated run at the start.
