VS Deather Proofer

Great route with spicy bits. The climb takes the wide crack to the right of Death-Proof, then shares a pitch and belay with Devil Drives and finishes up to the left.

  1. This pitch follows the wide/fist crack. You can start with few moves on the thin crack just to the right of the wide crack. Climb over the bulge and into the alcove. Either belay here or combine pitch 1 and 2.

  2. Take a step left from the alcove onto the arrete (you're now above Death-Proof) then straight up to below the small overhangs, traverse left and up on blocks until you reach a good belay with a few cracks.

  3. Go up over a few bulges for 3-4m then traverse left for 3 meters, then up a steep block and crack (this is the same pitch as Devil Drives). Belay at the rusty pegs.

  4. Go up the slab for 4m, then take a left around the corner to a foot traverse, along this for about 2m which brings you onto a small block (gear), over the bulge above you and into the crack which is followed to the top. (This pitch was climbed by Emmanuel a while before but he can't recall who with)
