Description

When you first look at this climb you might wonder why we bothered to climb it. To be honest I am not sure the rational but I am glad we did. There is some really fun climbing hidden in the gully.

Pull into the corner/gully and get good gear. Although the corner is dirty make fun moves up the solid rock aiming to the top of the gully. The crux is either pulling into the corner or at the top where you must step over a downed tree. The tree is hard to avoid and can be a rope management hazard.

Climb to the top then pick a tree to make an anchor to bring your second up on.

If the climb gets cleaned and the tree removed it would get another star. The cleaning wouldn't be hard but the downed tree will be difficult to move if there is anyone else at the cliff. It might get cleaned up at some point.

Location

Located in the gully to the left of the hideously blank face of Tales from the Crimp .12b/c and to the right of the bouldery Gulliver's Travels .11b.

Protection

Regular rack and slings or webbing for an anchor at the trees.
