Pot Leaf Cave - Left Arete

FA unknown
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

About 20 feet right of the Beech Crack on the Middle Tier, find the route by/in the cave with a pot leaf etched into it.

There are two ways to do the climb. One goes up the arete on the left of the cave. The other goes straight up the face, climbing left of the arete - this way is just a bit harder.

The route is fun and overhanging with a very strength-intensive crux. The sand stone in the cave is so bad that it makes smearing on it nearly impossible, but the holds on the arete are mostly high quality rock.

Protection

3 glue-in bolts plus a 2-bolt anchor with chains and permanent draws for lowering.
