Description
This route was climbed over 2 weekends in November 2020. The route was done onsight ground up. There are 4 / 2 bolt anchors and are mainly there for rapping the route from the top. There is a tree at the summit where you can rappel with one single rope. The rest of the rappels are double ropers. You can also just climb the route with a 60/ 70m rope and descend the gully.Pitch 1 - 5.7/8 up the ramp to the good ledge with small trees. 2. Stembox and interesting features will come into view as you go up. 1-5 inch cracks will take ya to the big grassy ledge AKA the “Grown Man Ledge” Long pitch. Bring up to a 5” Cam. 180 ft 5.93. Up low angle slabs and cracks to belay on a a good ledge underneath the main chimney system. 5.6/74. Hanging Gardens, OW visible above. Now that this pitch is cleaned up, one can likely go straight up instead of traversing right. You will arrive at a two bolt anchor. 5.95. Thrashing time begins here. A bit of Ow and stemming will get ya to the base of the Crux Pitches. Short pitch .9+ 50 ft6. Get the big boas out and ascend the wide crack. Doubles or triples in the 5 and 6 cam may be nice to have. You can link this one to the top of the route or belay under the giant roof .10D7.
