Purgatory

FA Dockins, Drumheller 1992
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

Right angling crack up the smooth grey slab past the tree.

Start with a mix of hands and fingers, surmount the tree, and continue up a wider, more broken crack to the chains.

Shares an anchor with Between Heaven and Hell. Worthy as its own route, and also a nice way to get up and put a top-rope on the .13 rather than stick-clipping your way up the prow.

Location

Right-hand of the two cracks splitting Dante's Wall.

Note: The route listing and topo photo for Between Heaven and Hell shows this route as the light blue line "a Dockins 12+/13-. The protection looks hilariously marginal." That actually describes "Inferno," the left-hand of the two cracks.

Protection

Gear from fingers to hands. Chain anchor.
