Description Suggest change

Aerohead is a 40 foot variation to the end of Aerospace. Basically, instead of continuing up the final arete to the anchors, step left onto the face and climb past two bolts.

While the climbing here is more consistant in difficulty with the rest of Aerospace (5.11), the arete (low 5.10) provides incredible position and may be more consistant in character. In my opinion, the arete is better, hands down.

Aerohead may easily be toproped from the anchor, and, if the leader chooses to stick with the Aerospace arete he can still leave the option open to his second by running out the easier climbing.

Protection Suggest change

Two bolts.
