B. 'Shoop Dog" 5.7 35m This climb is located to the left of the obvious chimney/crack and is named after the belayer on the first ascent who was tied to a tree all day and never did get to climb. Start in a flaring crack that improves as you get higher. A fixed pin climb protects the reachy moves through the crux. Pull the crux and move into a corner stem the corner and climb the crack to the top. This climb is not difficult but is fun and protects well and should be climbed more to clean it up. Standard rack to 4 inches, additional 2-3" pieces are helpful. Rappel from trees with double ropes or use a pull cord. |
