Description 

This was the first route I did in CT and I returned to it several times. The dihedral is steep and pumpy and the pro is decent but strenuous to place. Stout for its grade. Stem and jam up the steep dihedral which gets easier above as the angle eases.


Location 

White Fandango is one of the left-most routes on the crag. It is the obvious steep dihedral just left of the nasty looking Phantasmagoria roof.


Protection 

Standard rack of small wires through med cams.

The block at the top of the crux dihedrial is very loose- DON'T GRAB IT!

The block at the top of the crux is fine now. Not sure how it was before, but I weighted it with my 190 lbs. 3 times and it didn't budge.

Block on top of the dihedral is still loose but hasn't moved in 4 years, apparently.
