Description
A direct variation to the original obelisk roof. Start a few feet to the right of the original crack system start in the obvious wide crack. Follow the wide crack into the roof and continue into the roof for a long single pitch.
P1: (5.10) Follow the direct wide corner crack that leads to the original anchors below the roof.
P2: (5.11) From the wide crack, continue through the roof until you reach the ledge where an anchor can be used to either rappel or continue on and connect into the summit finish on the Conn Route.
**These two pitches are most enjoyably done as one linked pitch. Beware however, of rope management. The rope can easily get stuck if not extended properly when connecting the slab into the roof. **
