Underhanded

FA Mack Johnson, 2006

Description

Standing by the railing, the first two bolts are almost at head level.  Scramble down under the trestle from the east.  Tricky moves ease up before reachng the anchors at the base of Underture and Overture.  Underhanded can be toproped from this ledge with an exposed move to the chains.

With a rescrubbing and maybe some chalk marks, this would get another star.  The complete "Underhanded Overture" is a big pitch.

Location

The first route behind the railing along the Main Wall, just past the water drip.  It is easiest to belay down in the hollow below the railing.

Protection

5 bolts + chains
