Rastaman Vibrations.

Rastaman Vibrations is the pinnacle of true ground up ethics at Calaveras Domes. A Jay Smith classic showcasing his abilities as a true master of stone.

P1. Start up a series of blocks to a ramp which quickly goes vertical. Once on the face, it’s almost impossible to not want to reach over to the bolts on the nearby squeeze job as the lone piton protecting the difficult moves is long gone.

P2. Climbs a crack which opens just enough to wiggle in some gear.

P3. Traverse under a corner into a wide section with a gear belay. Exposed!

P4. Climb the face above tiptoeing along a dike and finally ending on ledges below a left facing corner. Take advantage of every little bit of gear you can find.

P5. Traverse left into the corner and follow it up until you can traverse left across the face into another corner a small ledge at its top.

P6. Tiptoe across the face and be perplexed at figuring this puzzle out. Move into the right facing corner to a small ledge with a bolted belay.

7. Climb the face above through a series of dikes making use of what gear you can find to supplement the bolts.

8. Climb up a series of hollow flakes and edges. Though there’s only one bolt, there is plenty of hidden gear along the way to take the exposure off your mind.

9. More edges and ledges with a committing move into an easy right facing corner/ramp to a bolted belay at the top of the corner.

10. Good edges and face climbing ends at a spooky traverse left along a thin dike past one lone bolt to High Street ledge and a bolted anchor.

11. Climb the opposing corner above making a move around a small bush and into a paper thin corner. Small nuts and big balls protect this test in your yoga abilities. Now enter the main corner above and go to work on this calf destroying lieback. The holds are often under a carpet of moss which is easily pulled out in clumps.

12. Easier corner climbing up a crispy face with good gear. Needs some traffic. Finish on a hole in the wall with a two bolt anchor.

13. Finish up a low angle corner to the top of the dome.

Start up a series of blocks right of the Hyena arch.
