Rotten Crack

5.10b, Sport, 40 ft (12 m),  Avg: 2.7 from 26 votes
FA: unknown
Washington > Southeast Corner > Granite Point > Granite Point Roped

Description

Follow the obvious seam to the ledge, traverse left to gain access to another seam to the anchors. The crux comes about half way up as you make the traverse left on good feet, but very thin hands. Stay aware toward the top and with all of the routes at Granite Point, trust your feet.

Protection

4 bolts with fixed clip anchors on top. Second clip is high, and decking is a real possibility if leading.
