The Stake

Description

Sit start with both hands matched on a low crimp rail. Fire up to a large sloping sidepull, or use a few options for intermediates. Once here get the feet up and reach up to a series of smaller, but good hand holds. Keep venturing up and slightly left, until the a tricky section is reached where the feet become less obvious and the holds become less positive and more spaced. A long reach up with the left hand gains a good rail, and then the reach for the lip and top out. The crux is probably the first move, but the mental crux is near the top and the landing is less than ideal.

Location

This problem is found just to the right of "Wild Mountain Honey", but starts sitting on top of the rock found to the right of the mentioned problem. It climbs the tall slab.

There is a mini roof feature at the top of the slab, this problem tops out to the left of this feature. The starting rail is about a foot or so long and is fairly low  with some tricky feet.

Protection

1-3 pads. The landing is flat for the intro, then you venture leftwards slightly and climb over the spike-like rock. Falling wouldn't be fun.
