Description
"Keelhauling" is a short toprope (or potentially highball) route on Gilligan's Island, which ascends the center of a featured face just right of "
Fearless Man
."
Start just to the right of a deep crack and ascend clean rock to a large bulge. Work right around the bulge and follow a short flake/crack to the top.
Location
Build a toprope anchor using clean trad-gear placements (a few nuts, hexes, and long slings) near the summit of Gilligan's Island. The top is easily accessible via a short scramble up the south side or a low 5th-class solo up the crack to the left of
Keelhauling
. Bring extra cord and extend the anchor to reduce rope drag. Walk off the south side.
Protection
Just a few meters right of
Fearless Man
lies a short, vertical rock face by the largest pine tree in the vicinity.
Poop Deck
and Keelhauling (see photo) share a gear anchor at the top.
