Description Suggest change

Super fun and a good warm up if this is your warm up grade. The guidebook calls the full 35m line 7b, but there's an intermediate anchor if you're only looking for 7a+. In both cases, the grade is probably a little soft. Especially if dihedral climbing and lie-backing are any sort of strength for you.

Start with easy climbing up a juggy chimney. Work through some funky stemming and long pulls until your forced out right on thin, vertical terrain. Crux back left into the crack and either clip the first set of chains or continue up higher for another 13m of funky and powerful liebacking on good holds. It's a rope stretcher, so watch your ends!

Location Suggest change

Rauxa climbs the obvious chalked up crack system just left of a large, prominent left facing corner. It's more or less at the junction of the approach trail and the cliff.
