Description

Arguably the most unique climb at Lizard tail and the Fun Ship area, King Gizzard is comprised of some funky climbing with two distinct cruxes. The first crux is pushing over the bulgy overhang on incut crimps, crafty crack climbing skills to the left can make these moves feel a bit more mellow. Weave left and right taking the path of least resistance to the final crux. The last moves involve some gymnastics style stretching, depending on your weakness this could be considered the hardest moves on the route.Funky, exposed and occasionally awkward, this route will test any 5.10 leaders in unexpected ways. 

Location

The center of Lizard Tail. 

Protection

6 bolts to lower-offs.
