Worth using some rope pro at top for belaying from above (or extend anchor a long way back towards top of route) and also for small wedge in middle of route (right side of first boulder).
More satisfying jamming for smaller hands and feet than the Obituary, and straightforward cam placements. Easy TR solo access and would be easy enough to build a ground anchor for lead solo |

20 | ★★ Atomic Punk - with Sean Peters | 25m, 5 | |||||
Downclimbed the crux several times trying to figure it out (tried both left and right beta) before finally giving up the flash attempt. Left is the better beta but it requires committing to the crimp on the top of the flake to get the RF up to a smear and then the high LF. Unfortunately my fingers were visibly making all the smooth, critical holds on the flake wet with condensation and I could never quite commit to trusting the last crimp.
Gear: medium wires, single rack + extra #1, bolt plates. |

Is this climb as dangerous as it is made out to be?
The climbing is pretty solid and there appears to be quite a lot of good protection here, but I am still quite new to trad. This is not an endorssement of safety, just a contribution to a conversation. If you are going to climb this, be careful and sew it up as much as you can. |
