Double Fisting Kittens

FA Anthony Webb, 2015
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

A slightly overhanging start on big holds to a stance, followed by a slightly thinner move to more jugs and a dirt top out. Extremely dirty, like most Vesuvius climbs, but the holds are there and the moves are fun Red River-type hauls. Enjoyable, if brief.

Location

Hike down the main trail from the dam about 100 yards until the trail crosses a dinner table sized flat rock, then turn right. There are 3 house-sized detached boulders here; walk straight up to the main wall, keeping the boulders on your right. The climb is on the obvious pocketed arete.

Protection

The FA was done as a rope solo using the big tree 5 ft to the left of the arete for an anchor. Could be led with some small gear (around Camalot .4) in horizontals at about 15 and 20 ft, if one were so inclined.
