Description
Powerful big moves on good holds out of a small roof into an interesting crack section, followed by more lock-offs, a rodeo ride up a hanging column and the quintessential Columns jug pulling to the chains.
Overall a fun route that feels deceivingly vertical yet its overhanging nature makes it a physical challenge.
BEWARE: IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO PRE-CLIP BOLT #2, and extend BOLT #4 (Combine 2 draws or 60 cm runner)! Blowing the clip on Bolt #4 has the potential for a ground fall.
The route was originally bolted by Alan H and laid dormant for many years without a successful free ascent. (source
