Sacred Fire

Description

Start below the obvious right facing flake on dirty slabs. Climb the flake to it's top, then step slightly right and up to "Merrymeeting Ledge", the 5' deep ledge. Sling the largest tree up high, then boulder up the 15' friction slab/face to better holds. Place a couple of pieces of gear in a small crack, then negotiate the surprisingly tricky top out moves with a beached whale manoever, or if you're brave on the sharp end, press it out.

Location

At the far left of the cliff is a dirty slab leading to a series of headwalls and overlaps. Sacred Fire begins on dirty slabs leading to the obvious large, right facing flake. Rap off of double pine trees (sling and quick links needed) with one 60M rope to reach the base.

Protection

Small stoppers and cams to 2".
