Toxic Gumbo

Description

A fun addition to this section that was better than i thought it would be.

Start from the ledge near the big tree and work the rope out so it runs straight. I just throw the rope around the tree so the belayer can stand under the start of the route. Anyway, climb the steep corner above, working the feet and making a tough move out left to a good stance. Move up and right and tackle a slight bulge to a slab with little crimps (getting on to the slab felt like the crux). Enjoy a nice ledge then finish one more vertical section on jugs and technical stuff to the anchor.

Location

On the right side of the A and D wall. Start on a dirt ledge near a large tree trunk.

Protection

10 bolts to 2 bolt anchor. A longer draw here and there and maybe a shoulder sling at the transition from the slab into the final steep keeps the rope running well.
