Mind Your Bulging Codpiece
Description
This is the Spice Tour of Rincon. Link
Mind Over Matter
into
Bulging Codpiece
in one mega, 48 meter pitch of sustained, runout, and technical climbing. This is a master class in how to climb in Eldo. It has everything that is intimidating about our beloved canyon; groundfall potential, thin and devious crimping, micro gear, funky overhanging climbing on heads up rock, and then a glorious and sustained runout voyage on beautiful featured slabs where falling is not a good options.
An onsight of this link-up would be a proud feat of mental and technical ability. I'm almost positive no one has done it yet. The gauntlet is laid down....
Location
Start on
Mind Over Matter
, between the first pitch of
Rincon
and the
Five-Ten Crack
, then keep climbing straight up into
Bulging Codpiece
, and finish on the second pitch anchors of
Rincon
.
A 100 meter ropes gets you down. With a 70 meter rope, belay at the second pitch anchors of
Rincon
, and then do a double rap down.
Protection
A whole rack of RPs, nuts to large (no pun intended), and a single rack of cams. Place it all well, and it will be fine. Make some mistakes, and it will get serious fast.
