Description
Dumpster Diving is another engaging and continuously demanding climb at the Recovery Wall. Proper footwork will get you up this two pitch journey.
Pitch 1 goes up the tricky face to the right of the classic Sex Face. The crux is getting through the first 3 bolts, but you have 9 more looming ahead. Even though the crux is low, the techy face climbing doesn't let up until about bolt 8, 12 bolts, 80 feet, 11a.
Pitch 2 starts in the alcove directly above the anchors. This long pitch (105 feet) trends up and right all the way to the upper tower of this crag's ridge, 12 bolts, 105 feet, 10b.
