Description

AKA "Foodbar Pitch 2" is yet another brand new adventure to the inner walls. This monumental task of cleaning has yielded a fantastically varied second pitch to the Foodbar. If my initial cleaning job (about 90% clean) is finalized this could easily be 3.5 stars. This pitch has it all: finger locks, hand jams, stemming, liebacking, chicken wings, heel hooks, and mantles.

Once you've climbed either HHHW, Foodbar, or Sucker Punch, begin right of the belay up blocky climbing. Move left onto the ledge above your belayer and get a solid #0.5 BD cam. Continue up easy blocky climbing with the occasional crack and stem to a fun lieback switch move in a right facing corner/ramp with a great finger crack. Climb up to the obvious short offwidth that begins at #2's. A #0.3 X4, totem, etc. protects the short 5.10+ boulder problem and mantel onto the ledge out left. From here climb the fun broken arete with good holds and cracks. Save a #0.5 for this section. Head towards the corner above the removed tree and make a few hard-ish moves to the anchors out right on the large ledge. A #4 protects these moves but if confident you can leave it behind.

It is possible from the anchors to rappel hard right to the anchors of The Breakup to set up a top rope.

Location

Above Humpback Humpback Humpback Whale, Foodbar and Sucker Punch.

Protection

Gear to 4". Heavy on smaller gear #0.2 - 0.75 is nice to have. A single #2, #3 and #4 is sufficient. The #4 protects the last moves but could be neglected if confident. Extend pieces after the crux. 30m x 2 rappels to the ground.
