Description
A kind of discontinuous crack system, Arrowroot will challenge your climbing skills in more way than one.
Start by climbing up discontinuous cracks and dikes through the headwall just left of Arctic Breeze. Arctic Breeze is really close to Arrowroot and you can even reach over and clip some bolts on Arctic Breeze if you want. As you climb higher on the pitch, Arrowroot moves out to the left and continues up the face to a large ledge. Pitch 2 climbs up some splitter cracks through a small roof and some sketchy plates that are more solid than they look. After climbing over the roof you reach some dirty cracks and dikes up the face a short distance to a large ledge. Belay here and continue up any number of ways to the top of the West Wall, or scramble down to the anchors on Hospital Corner and rappel to the ground.
Location
Starts in almost the same place as Arctic Breeze.
Protection
Cams to 2". Nuts 1 set.
