Description

The guide book description (C)2013 is pretty much dead on without the details. The start is broken and loose and also a little spooky with a difficult crux getting into the finger crack. After the crux the crack quickly opens up to perfect hands and big hands to the anchor.

Location

This route is on the far left end of Reservoir Wall, about 20 minutes past Excuse Station. There is no trail and the bush whacking sucks but hopefully that will improve with some more traffic. The crack is in lighter colored sandstone vs the typical wingate and is very solid. Some of the rock around the start is a little chossy but easy to avoid.

Protection

Doubles of .3 to #1, lots of #2's and #3's to the anchor. A couple #3 Friends work well to supplement the Camalots.

9/2020 new anchors installed just left of original aluminum bolt.
