Routes in Window Rock

Starts with a flaring hand crack on a bulge. Getting into this crack and past the bulge is the crux of the climb. After about 20 feet the difficulty eases up as the crack gets better and less flaring. This line has been described in guidebooks as a two pitch climb but if you have a 70 meter rope you can do it in one pitch. In fact if you have a 70 you should do it in one pitch because the crack is very straight and offers little opportunity to create much rope drag even without extending every piece. The last forty feet or so is a bit chossy but the rock quality for the first 100 feet is excellent. To get back down with one 70 you will need to scramble to the north side of the rock and find rap chains near the other routes located there.

Slab start to a bolt. Standard rack up to #2. Rap anchors.
