Description
Fun dynamic moves on an awesome steep arete lead to a funky and slightly cryptic crux(V7) followed by a no-hands rest, and another crux(V5) of arete slapping and high-stepping funk!
Location
Clip the first bolt on “smokestack,” then go up left onto the steep orange arete, clipping 4 more bolts then the anchors above the roof. The middle of this route is the TR project ‘god machine’ which seems to wander up and left to finish on ‘blankety blank’ at the first crux of “mothership connection.”
