Description
This is a fun new route with a bouldery start, a funky traverse, and a cool roof finish. It's definitely worth a go if you don't mind a little traversing. I think the 11c/d grade is accurate, but I could be wrong -- it may feel a bit harder a the start.
Boulder up to a good jug and clip the high first bolt (or stick clip it). Bouldery moves get you to more good holds and bolt 2. From here crank up and right to the large ledge/rail, ape your way across (passing a bolt) until it's possible to mantel onto it. Continue right, passing the last bolt and good cams in the horizontal. Very cool climbing through the roof gains a ledge and a bolted anchor. Note: there is a good shallow rp/small stopper placement (#4) in the roof but it is difficult to place on lead -- I considered leaving one fixed but didn't want to encourage people to skip the good cam placements in lieu of the dinky wire.
P-2 Climb P-2 of Conventional Warfare, or Solace of Open Spaces.
