Just Barely

Description

Known primarily for a novel "slab-dyno" past the first bolt, this route provides some tough slab smearing to a moderate yet exciting finish. The first crux is, as mentioned, a bizarre leap to a good crimp. The guidebook refers to the move as "The Boing", and rightly so: there seems to be no other option than to spring, jump, or otherwise lunge to the next hold, which is decidedly awkward on a thin climb such as this. Afterward, engaging face climbing leads to a good ledge, then a moderate runout to a two-bolt rap anchor.

You can top-rope this route with a 60 meter rope.

Location

Located about 60 feet to the right of The Last Dihedral.

Protection

Four bolts. The top is a bit runout, but the climbing remains moderate to easy in difficulty.
