Keelhaul

Named for the crux move on the upper arête, reminiscent of the keel of a ship, this route climbs through steep cracks, shallow grooves and slab face moves. It can easily be climbed in one pitch, however there is an intermediate anchor on a sloping ledge for those wanting just a 5.10 trad climb.

P1. 5.10, 15 m. Climb left from the starting ledge into a semi-dirty cleft below two cracks. Jam and stem your way up on of these cracks (# 3 and 2 camalots) before the crack thins for the final push onto a small ledge with an alder root system. Continue on easy ground to a sloping ledge to find the anchor.

P2. 5.11, 15 m. Move right of the intermediate anchor into a groove/flake system. .3 and/or .4 camalots protect this flake before traversing good face holds right to the arête. The route follows bolts from this point. Climb the arête to reach a lower-angle groove. Before the groove fades out (don't get sucked to the left!), traverse right over slab for the final bulge to the anchor.

Immediately above the starting ledge (follow the fixed rope from the gully).
