Torcher Arete

Description

A great way to work on the top of the problem is to pull into a big right hand undercling below the arete and get into the last finger lock. From there you can step off the ramp rock into the toe hook and climb the boulder to the top. It's a great option to climb if you intend to project the route over a long period of time, or if the crack is wet, because the sequence is essentially the same as if you started from the crack. It's a good route on it's own, even if it does skip the best part. I also found it extremely useful to pull onto the holds and try a few moves to help warm up.

Location

Under the arete, look for a big right hand undercling, and walk up the foot ramp into the holds for the arete.
