Description Suggest change

After we climbed the Honey Pot Dihedral and the right Y Crack, we wanted to continue. Maurice led straight above the Y crack’s finish, up a very thin crack in a right-facing corner system. He then continued up an offwidth and a thin crack in a face. He led the final pitch up scratches in the glassy, polished, short headwall. As I was following our third pitch (above the ground, first pitch of our continuation), Bill Kees yelled up from the ground, saying that we were “on a new pitch!”

Location Suggest change

Start at the finish of the right Y Crack, two pitches above the ground.

Protection Suggest change

Lots, from tiny to fist, maybe bigger. I’ve found Ball Nutz and smaller Tri-cams to be very useful at Ophir, especially on the blank faces.
