Description

Dog House Direct is to Angels Gate what the Screaming Sky Crack is to Zoroaster. One long pitch from the ground, tops out directly on the summit right next to the register. Fingers to cupped hands to off-width to fists. Crux is pulling the roof on hand/fist stacks. A few loose blocks at the start and end but most of it is clean. Double rope rappel returns you to the start.

Location

NE face of the Dog House. Visible from the Redwall saddle on approach. It's the right of the two cracks that converge to a common chimney system at the top. See photo

Protection

small/med nuts. green C3 or equivalent. Single rack from 0.3- 0.75. Doubles 1, 2, and 4. Triple 3, One or two 5s. Save a 5 for the roof. Sling large block or constriction for anchor on top.
