Description
The terrific upper half is a bolted crack, but I'm not complaining. Start in the alcove to the right of the giant boulder, as for
Adventure Kayak
and
River Dance
. Up & right easily on the slab (R of
RD
) and follow a vertical face to a roof. The roof (crux) is wild, pumpy and complex for the legs/feet. (Note, there is a tempting and large wedged block midway through this passage which moves when gently pulled from some directions.) Above the roof, gain a good rest then follow an interesting 5.10 handcrack most of the rest of the way to the anchors. Use long slings on the 6th and 7th bolts to avoid rope drag.
This felt pretty solid in the grade, on a par with
Hey Good Looking
at Wall of the '90s.
It is route 13 in the beta photo. This is the pitch described by Josh Finklestein under the comments for
Slacker
.
Protection
11 bolts.
