Barbed Wire

FA Rob Kelman and Ben Boykin, 2012

UPDATED 

Description

Climb the nice, but short, handcrack formed by the blade. The angle then eases and the crack widens. Follow it to a chimney. Slither along the bottom of the chimney, as if crawling under barbed wire, to the easy-looking vertical exit crack (crux), which is size-dependent. The bigger you are the harder it will be.

Location

Barbed Wire,

Day of Wrath

, and

The Panhandle

are accessed by scrambling up the northeast side of Limbo Rock and moving to the southeast side along the ledge at top of Formicae. There are a series of cracks from moderate to huge along the ledge.

Barbed Wire

starts at the third crack on the wall, which has a large blade of rock on the left side of the crack. See the beta photo for

The Panhandle
