Description

IN DEPTH 5.9+ **** (R) (3 pitches) G

Named for the jamming, the seriousness of the undertaking and the vivid description of an early ascentionist, this fine route climbs the prominent offwidth left of the central arete.

P1 (70', 5.7+) - Fun and well protected, a set of chains has been installed for toproping.

P2 (100', 5.9+ R) - Scary, runout and awkward but it's probably a classic! Take lots of big gear and belay above the alcove.

P3 (70', 5.7) - Continue straight up the crack to the ledge below Broadway.

Walk off to the east or west...

Location

The obvious crack system just left of the central arete.

Protection

Full rack (probably not "R" if you have some very large cams - I know my 6" tube chocks weren't big enough to do anything...).
