Center-Right Face

Description

Interesting moves. . . . Currently the lower half is partly shared with the route to left. But if the Project Start below works, then would have a more independent line.

Start (same as route to left) 10 ft left of two stacked boulders, a bit left from under the arete which forms right edge of upper face. . . . (? Project: Start up face 18 ft left of two stacked boulders, then cross over route to left ?).

Continue straight up narrow face between crack on left and right-facing corner on right (not using the corner for holds) to reach 2-3-ft wide left-diagonal crack. Straight over that and up face above (here can use right-facing corner for a key hold). Trend slightly left, up across right-diagonal crack, and finish 6-8 ft right from top vertical crack.

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).
