Spiritual Warfare

Spiritual Warfare is the namesake route of the Warfare area. This line came by its name honestly; as the first route here, it was our introduction to the inevitable head game of climbing on the upper wall. It felt so intimidating that we said you had to engage in spiritual warfare to climb it. It quickly became the area classic and is the centerpiece of the Warfare area.

Start right of the big boulder and veer left up the slab through a v-slot. A nice overhanging face section leads to the first crux at the beginning of the dihedral. Pull big moves through jugs to the red point crux above the roof. Climb two more steep sections with plenty of exposure to the anchors.

This route has a fixed belay station a little above head level. Clip it with a long bite of rope or webbing.

First route right of the large boulder.
