Description Suggest change

No Such Thing as a Free Lunge is an athletic route up the glass smooth north side of Jello Tower on Upper Castle Rock. The climbing is sustained and the gear finicky after the crux.  The crux itself is nicely protected.  There's a lot to this route!  Pulling the boulder moves over the bulge feels like making 7 moves for 2 feet of vertical gain.  The middle section is tricky and the final roof moves a little sting in the tail!

Location Suggest change

North facing wall of Jello Tower is where this pitch is located, just to the right of Damnation Crack.

Protection Suggest change

Gear from .4 to 2.5". Offsets useful.
