MapDescription
The route follows the long, arching crack under a large roof. Traverse right on the flake to anchors at the apex of the crack. Access to Fuzzy's Farce (AKA Chambermaid) from the anchors. You can easily rap to the ground with a single 60m. The rock quality is hot-glued, brown sugar. It is very sandy, use caution.
The anchors at the top are two old-style bolts/hangers and some sad looking pitons. I left cord and a rap ring behind. You can't rap directly off the anchors, be prepared to leave tat.
You can rap into
Grapefruit Dance
to set up a TR from Arching Crack's anchors.
Location
It is on the west side of North Gateway Rock, North (left) and slightly up the hill from
Grapefruit Dance
and the Blowouts.
Protection
0.4 - 1 C4s and sling for potholes.
