The Poacher

FA Anderson and Moscowicz
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

This was named after a guy with the sleazy habit of snagging FFAs after his buddies have done all the drilling and cleaning. On this route, however, the proper FA credit clearly goes to Tod and Ernie for the day-long, extensive lichen removal effort that made this into a good line.

This route climbs a lot like

Protege

(its neighbor), although it doesn't have quite the same spooky feel to it. It is hard down low and then eases up as you go.

Location

The Poacher sits just right of

Protege

on the north-facing wall.

Protection

12 bolts (?).
