Description
This route saw bolt replacement in 2023 and some bolts were repositioned for safety. It now offers a cleaner, safer, more enjoyable experience than it has in the past.
Start by mantling on to a shelf and working right until it is possible to pull over the crux roof. If you go too far right it can feel spooky. Pull the roof directly while you are closer to the bolt. Continue up staying right of the bolts but avoid going off into the bushes. After a second challenging section you will gain a slab which will get you easily to the anchor.
Try to keep the rope out of a small crack at the lip of the slab to avoid rope drag
