Description
Excellent climbing on the slightly overhanging 5.10 wall. Several other routes and many variations follow the same terrain, but no worries: all are good, and all are similar in grade!
Start at some mossy ledges and scramble up through some massive juggy boulders. Use the right-hand of two similar cracks splitting the bulge, gaining a stance under an overhang.
Move left under the overhang (or go straight up for Radioactive Direct 10d, substantially harder), and eventually work right again to head straight over the line you began with.
Roaring Twenties 10b takes a similar line, but breaks left on the upper part (and uses the left-hand lower crack).
See Adirondack Rock for a detailed topo.
Location
Left-hand side of the 5.10 wall.
Protection
Standard rack, no big stuff required.
Build a gear anchor at the top, and last man just breaks it down and 4th-classes over the slab to the trail at the top.
Can TR with a 70m; 60m stretches both belayer and climber...
