Description
This is a variation to the final(4th) pitch of Euro Trash which keeps the climb in the same, moderate, range as the first three pitches.
From the belay at the top of the third pitch of Euro Trash clip the first two bolts of that route then head up and left to a small right-facing corner with a crack. Place a yellow alien in the crack and step left to a good ledge.
Climb up and right to a bolt. Use a long sling here to reduce rope drag. Next, climb more or less straight up past a second bolt to a third bolt. Traverse back up left to a small corner(1/2" cam) and up to a fourth bolt.
Make the crux mantle left onto a good ledge. Clip the 5th bolt and traverse slightly left then back right and up to a big flake(1/2" cam). Head up and right on easy ledges to a sixth bolt then straight up to the belay at the top of Euro Trash.
