Description Suggest change

The second long sport line up the outside of the Great Arch. The start is a remarkable departure from the usual at Wolf, replacing the normal ocean of edges with rock of a slopey and wavey texture which will defeat the typically successful tactic here of "lock off, reach up and slap for something that looks like an edge."

A TR can easily be set on this route by climbing Steppenwolf.

P1 - 9 bolts: After attaining safety having clipped the 2nd bolt, push through the crux for the next two bolts or so before the difficulty eases significantly.

P2 - 4 bolts: Also the 2nd pitch of Steppenwolf. Ascend easy climbing to the JP's Route anchor, passing rock of "dubious" quality. Descend via the arete anchors.

Location Suggest change

The 2nd route past The Arete. Start on the first obvious ledge and belay from the wonderful newly-installed step platforms.

Protection Suggest change

9 clips plus anchor.
