Staring Contest

FA Dane Brooks?, April 2020

Description

This is a possible FA. Let me know if this problem has been done before. I saw no signs of chalk, rubber, or evidence of scrubbing. I am calling it 'Staring Contest' for now because of the eye-like pockets on the arete.

Start matched on a large undercling at hip height with your left foot on a sloping face and your right foot on the larger ramp. Be careful not to dab as you make a couple of moves up the arete using pocket pinches and small slot crimps. The large flake to your right is off. It has pretty fun moves up unique holds, but the climb's quality is not the best, due to its awkward start and dab factor. Still, if you are in the area, it is worth doing.

Location

It is located right across from the Spaceship and below
