Right Corner + Slab

Interesting moves in a variety of rock situations. Tricky crux moving across tree halfway up. . . . (overall difficulty of route only 5.5 if untie from rope when reach the tree, step around outside right of tree, then re-tie into belay rope).

Start at base of crack system 5 ft right from 2-ft-deep left-facing inside corner. Up and Right to ledge just left of outside corner with 4-inch-thick tree. Around the corner going inside / above the tree. . . . (Grabbing or touching tree is OK, but likely does not help much). . . . (More important to find the best combination of hand- and foot-holds, otherwise significantly more strenuous / difficult).

Around the corner find South-facing slab which forms the right end of this cliff. Up that to its top.

warning: The rock on and near this route has not been climbed much yet, and some of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber or someone setting up top anchor.

. . . (Lots of vegetation on this rock as of 2018. Be prepared when climbing to navigate around protruding trees and branches, and dealing with holds slippery with grass, lichen, moss, dirt).

Top-Rope: For ideas how to set up anchor for Top-Roping, see Description page for this sector Crefeld. Likely helps to place directional protection at the tree mid-way through the route, to reduce the danger of the climber from taking a big swing sideways if fall just before reaching the tree.

Lead: Protection for Trad leading is unknown and likely inadequate.
