Slopey Circ Mantel

FA old school 1980's
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

This is the mantel escape described in the problem Open Circuit (V7). Start at the beginning of Open Circuit (aka Slopey Circ), grab some cool veiny jug holds, and mantel on them with your feet under the overhang, onto a slab and top out. The key is a strong left heel hook perch. This is one of my favorite mantels at the Stables; in an area full of quality frictiony mantels!

Location

On a boulder the end of the Circuit area facing downhill. Between Thin Circ Arete and Polar Bear. The problem named Open Circuit described on this website is a slightly contrived traverse extension to this problem.

Protection

A single pad is more than sufficient.
