Canyon of the Crescent Moon (Full Moon Extension)

WARNING: this route is longer than 40 meters.  It is extremely unlikely that you can lower to the ground with a 70m or 80m rope - use the midpoint anchor to double lower or rappel twice.  You should be able to double lower with a 60m but this has not been tested - TIE KNOTS!  If you have never double lowered before, make sure you learn how first!Canyon of the Crescent Moon now has an extension that takes it to a logical conclusion at top of the wall.  Since the existing Crescent Moon has been well-received, is a lower grade, and ends at a logical midway point, I'll post this as a separate route.  I may come up with a more cleverer name eventually.While the grade is certainly higher (than Crescent Moon), the crux is short, extremely fun and well-protected.  In my biased opinion, the extension adds a strong half to full star to the existing route, making it into a long, extremely varied and exciting full value line.  From the anchor on Crescent Moon, make an insecure mantle onto a ledge, then head for the bolts.  After the first few feet of so-so rock, you'll find yourself in a sea of high-quality limestone, featuring pockets, sidepulls and crimp slots, leading up to a steepening section of featured rock with some neat flowstone.  Rest up before launching into a final crux that requires power, footwork and body position.  More grin-inducing pockets and a final insecure mantle guard the chains.  Make sure to turn around and enjoy the view!Grade is a bit of a guess, I felt tired today but sent (the extension) on only my second try. Could go either way.

Extension to Canyon of the Crescent Moon.
