Deadwood

This somewhat uninspiring looking line has continuously challenging and interesting moves. The crux for most people is likely to be the final bulge move before the anchors. A small roof/bulge move 1/3rd up may be the crux for others. The rock is a little gritty at the start of the route but is good the rest of the way. Deadwood had a large variety of fun moves. The climbing reminds me somewhat of some of the routes at Lover's Leap (CA).

Deadwood is about 50' down from Crimson Arete. The route starts in an inset bordered by 2 seams/cracks with a small roof above. Its on the north side of the East Face notch and gets late afternoon shade.

Gear to 3 1/2". Optional O.W. cams (up to largest B.D. or W.C.) can be helpful but aren't necessary to safely protect the route(there are no O.W. moves on it). This route requires a mild amount of creative gear placement and probably isn't a good beginner lead. Rap anchors at the top.
