Access Issue: Large Rockfall
Details
There was a large rockfall from Yak Peak on July 28, 2022. The extent of damage to routes or which routes have been affected is not yet known. Until more information is known it's best to stay away from the area. This will be updated when additional details are available.
Description
This route follows the major right-leaning weakness out left of and parallel to Yak Crack. It reaches the end of the technical climbing and descends from there instead of going up to the summit. Rick says the climbing is slightly easier than Yak Crack and that one pitch has rotten rock but the rest is good.
