Description
Classic (for the area) splitter that goes from fingers, to thin hands, to hands then is fist and/or offwidth(y) above the horizontal.
You can climb the fingers to hands crack to the horizontal then instead of continuing onto the fist/offwidth above, crawl (an average size human can fit) through the passage/tunnel and build an anchor. Just an option.
Location
Second full length splitter on the main wall.
Protection
standard rack + optional #4 cam for above the horizontal
[Hide Photo] Simple: .5, .75, 1, 2 and #3 sized cams to sew it up to the horizontal.
[Hide Photo] Belaying Kristen up Curt's Crack.
[Hide Photo] Good view of the belay spot
[Hide Photo] Quad hung on 2 vertical bolts. Blue circle is a 3rd bolt if you want to be horizontal instead of vertical.
[Hide Photo] Rope hanging on route and note the top of the climb where you'll find the bolts. 3 bolt top.
But others reserve that word for the route on the face to its left. Jun 7, 2015
