Fire Starter

FA Leitner & Alber, '98
CREATED May 2023
UPDATED May 2023

Description

Fire Starter flirts with the difficulty on Uptown Venus but stays moderate, unless you head right at the last bolt (5.11c). Start by clipping the first two bolts of Uptown and veer right for 4 more clips. There is an optional 5.11c finish on the right, but the natural line follows the roof crack.

There is a one bolt anchor, but most will prefer to use the anchor on Uptown Venus.

Location

On the right side of the crag, start with the first 2 bolts of Uptown Venus (5.12 arete).

Protection

5-6 bolts.
