Description

This route has two distinct but dissimilar cruxes: the overhang at the first bolt and the face moves at the last bolt. Enjoyable face climbing on large holds is found between the two cruxes.

This route starts at the right side of a left-angling ramp of black rock. Scramble up the ramp, and clip the bolt on the lip of the overhang. Proceed up and slightly right past four bolts then back slightly left past three more bolts.

The route name comes from the fact that the combined ages of the two members of the FA team is 130+ years. They have enjoyed a 40+ year climbing partnership.

Location

This is the rightmost route on the wall and is about 20 feet right of

. Spot the left-angling ramp of black rock with an easily visible bolt on the overhang its top.
