Psycho Path

Description

Pull three roofs and finish on the face. The route crosses each roof at slight weaknesses which are visible from the ground.

There are a couple of good holds above the first roof (crux) but the move up is very awkward and strenuous. The rock is sharp and if you fall, you will likely get banged up.

I'd tell you about the 2nd and 3rd roof but I never made it over the first one. Will add detail later.

Location

Just right of the top of the ascent path. Look up and you'll see three distinct roofs above a bulge.

Suitable anchors for TR, but it's tricky to locate from the top. Leave a spotter below.

TR Location: At the top are some old metal railings. Look for the remains of a broken-off railing with about 6" sticking out of the rock. Drop the rope just a little to climber's right of the broken post.

Descent: Walk off right.

Protection

Be warned. This is a classic CT sandbag. The rock at the bottom can be loose and sharp. Bolt missing. Standard rack.
