Shadow Boxer

5.11c/d, Sport, 65 ft (20 m),  Avg: 1.5 from 2 votes
FA: Glenn Ritter and Joi Matsukawa, October 2018
Utah > Central Utah > Maple Canyon > Maple Canyon Rd > Outside the Box

Description

Right hand route on the wall, just left of the corner.    Starts out on easier terrain but gets stout as you pull through the bulge onto the upper face.   The crux is surprisingly technical, but once you unlock the key it's a really fun and intricate series of moves that leads to pretty sustained climbing through the upper half.

Location

Climbs the face just left of the corner and avoids any stemming to claim the grade.   

Protection

9 stainless glue-in bolts, plus anchors
