Last Line of the Story

This is one of the last routes Jim Scott helped establish. I remember him telling me that he and Doug had top-roped a line and that we should go bolt it. I wasn't too inspired when Jim told me about it but Doug ever since Jim died has felt like it was unfinished business. Today we went out and worked out the crux which is about 10 feet up and hard to read. Unfortunately this hard steep section leads to fun but much easier climbing so it is no classic but worth doing if you are there. You can easily TR the crux from the anchors on the route to the right but please use your own draws so you don't ruin the fixed lower offs.

Bolts, carabiner lower offs.
