Runout Chimney

CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

Start in the Chimney work your up way up past this section, then transfer out onto the ledge system. Once you pass the ledges, you will be left to a large runout of simple slab. Be sure you are ready to commit to the slab. As you climb the top rope drag becomes a problem as well as communication. Recommend radios if you have em. Didn't find any information on this route in the guidebook or online, so if anyone knows the name of the route, or the FA just contact me to update it.

Location

This route is located to the right of Stem Corner. you will find the beginning blocked a bit by an ivy bush. Move past it and you will have a nice place to start and belay.

Getting down can be rapped off the bolts for the Wick, or find a place to downclimb.

Protection

Protect the start by tying the rock above the chimney with a sling. Then up further with a #6 Cam. Near the top of the ledge I used a nut. Then Climbed the committing runout slab, then placed two cams and used three rocks for the top rop setup for the others to enjoy this route.
