Description

The route is fantastic except for one little blip. It has 80 feet of great hands in great rock up a steep face, but the first 20 feet on soft choss approaching the wall detract some. Traverse in from the right stepping carefully, clip a couple of fixed pieces (back clean the first). The white crumbly stuff is only about 5.0 and the crack is worth the dirty walk. Be careful with a 60m rope! It would be possible to lower off the end when lowering downhill--knot the end.

Location

Last route on the upper wall before it folds into Capulet.

Protection

A #3 protects behind the big flake about 15 feet to the left of the start. A 0.4 or 0.5 protects the move onto the ledge to start the meat of the route. 1-#0.75, 3 each #1-2, #4 nice for the pod, #3 for the finish.
