Description
Walk into the den, and you're going to want to climb the thirty foot refrigerator arete that rises out of the back. Heavy manufacturing was done on this one by who knows who, but for what it's worth, the vast majority of holds are simply improvements to existing features, so the climbing still has a natural feel. Start on a well-built platform at an incredibly obvious drilled pocket (Stick clip mandatory). Climb a hard intro sequence to some good holds. Find yourself in a V9 or 10 crux before the climbing backs off to around V4 or 5. Cop a rest on a huge jug directly under the arete. The arete is spectacular, all natural 5.12. So so so good. If the drilled pockets were less obvious lower on the route, it'd get that extra star.
Location
There is one dinky route to the left of this, but for all intent and purpose, Goku is the left-most route in the den.
Protection
bolts, no permas
