Description
This submission is for the first pitch of Negative Space, a 3 pitch route on the north side of the Third Flatiron. Pitches 2 and 3 are unfinished, closed projects, but P1 is a nice way to access Papillon or Northwest Passage, or a stand-alone, single pitch sport route.
Start by wandering up the 3rd Class slope of the north side right where it meets the hiking trail (just before reaching the west side). Zig-zag your way up to the final 20 feet of low 5th Class (you can rope up here if you prefer, it's about 5.0 and takes hand-sized gear) to a ledge.
Pitch 1: 5.12a, 85 feet, 9 bolts + anchor. Step up onto the easy ramp to clip the first bolt. Climb up the easy ramp a little ways until you can step onto the slab, and clip the second bolt. Slab climb / stem your way into the roof feature, navigating some lichen along the way. Pull over onto the slab above the roof via good holds, then finish the last few bolts of slab to get to the easier low angle terrain above. 2 more bolts get you to the anchor at the start of the overhanging red wall - careful of loose rock on this final easy section. This pitch can climbed as a single pitch sport route, or used as a cool / safe way to access Papillon, Jackson's Ledges, or Northwest Passage.
Location
Hike the 3rd Flatiron Trail all the way to where it just about touches the north side, directly underneath the top of the north face. Scramble left up the face, zig-zagging back right and then left up towards the highest point that is accessible via low 5th Class climbing. The route starts on the furthest left side of the small ledge. If you are squeamish about soloing 5.0, bring a few hand-sized pieces.
