Description Suggest change

Alongside Holey Wars and Holey Mackerel, they make the Holey trifecta of the ORG.

A set of anchor bolts were put up by Todd Graham some years ago but then it just sat abandoned. I checked in with Todd and got the green light to bolt the whole line in 2021.

It's a special route with funky mind-blowing good moves. It's very slightly overhanging yet climbs like a slab. Techy, powerful, it has jugs, nothing crimps, pockets, underclings, side pulls, and most importantly, often nothing for feet. I broke so many important holds in the process of trying it, eventually I stopped counting but I never lost the desire. I reinforced nothing, glued nothing, and chipped nothing. It's a minimalistic climb for those who seek out this style. I'm happy to say now there is really nothing left that can break.

First 5.14 in the ORG. As far as I know, as of spring 2024 it has one repeat by Alex Honnold who confirmed the grade.

Thin line to the right of Holey Wars. It climbs straight up hugging the bolt line.
