Peak Mountain 3

Center Zig-Zag

FA unknown

Description

Lots of interesting moves, but not sustained in difficulty.

Start up face a bit right from the right big tree, staying left of low alcove. Next diagonal left up ramp or crack to get left from below high alcove, then diagonal right to reach the high alcove (or perhaps could cut out some of this zig-zag and go more directly to the high alcove). Up the right side of the alcove, then traverse left across the top of the high alcove. Up a little, then diagonal right and up to the top.

Variations: Could instead start to the left or to the right of the main route.

warning: The rock on and near this route has not been climbed much yet, and some of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber or someone setting up top anchor.

. . . (Lots of vegetation on this rock as of 2018. Be prepared when climbing to navigate around protruding trees and branches, and dealing with holds slippery with grass, lichen, moss, dirt).
