Peak Mountain 3

Shotput

FA unknown
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

Starting on obvious underclings at chest height, make a big left move to an obvious "shotput" pinch. Then roll right delicately on crystal crimps to slopey notch arete and up.

A bomber foot block immediately above start broke recently. Now it is harder for the grade and potentially height-dependent but very do-able.

Location

This is right off the trail, above

Ode to Failure

and

The Syringe

, downhill from

Childbirth

. It is easily identifiable by large pine growing out of base of boulder.

Protection

One or two pads is plenty. Decent spotter is helpful to keep climber on the trail should they try to go dynamic and miss.
