Gully to Ridge Right side

Lots of thoughtful moves in two different rock situations.

Start up the gully between the blocks of "Mamba" and "Blocks to Ridge", and the ridge of "Left Ridge". Before the gully gets substantially vegetated, trend left adn then finish up face along right side of ridge, up to three-bolt anchor.

warning: The rock on and near this route has not been climbed much yet, and some of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber.

FA first ascent? The listing of a Top-Rope first ascent does not imply that top-roping is the "appropriate" style for this route. If some party bolts this route and leads it and supplies a careful description of the size and metal-composition of the bolts and hangers - (by posting an Improve This Page or a Comment below) -- they wlll be given first-rank FA on this page. Also they can supply their own name for this climb (which is why currently this route has a "generic" name, awaiting installation of hardware).

Fixed hardware is top anchor only.

No intermediate bolts for leading as of 2018.

Protection for Trad leading is unknown and likely inadequate.

Top anchor is three bolts with ramshorn lower-off.

Details see the route "Mamba"

For ideas about how to get access to set up top anchor, see Description page for Moynier sector.

In case anchor hardware is damaged or missing or otherwise inadequate, recommend to carry a few feet of 8mm climbing accessory cord and at least one quick-link.
