Description
This was a hard one to set. Now that it is done, we think you will like it. The rock was challenging for establishing bolts. So the second bolt is a bit high. This was the best placement, and stance, and crux. Do not thrash here, Back step and find the beta intensive easy clip. But make the dam clip or deck. If you do not see the easy stemming sequence, you could get some small cams in the corner to cover the move, You would have to pull them after setting the draw. Next is a swing around the arete off a jug and into a right foot hole on the polished face. Otherwise, your movement is normal as you walk the ramp to the second crux just below the chains. Great rock and face climbing here. Fun steep moves.
Location
Turn north at the end of the trail and edge to the down climb with a blue fixed line. Follow cairns for just a few meters to the first climb you see. This is an easy approach compared to the rest of the Air Strip.
Protection
Seven QDs and three runners. Clip the third and forth bolt long!
