Us and Them

This is one of 6 routes that is accessed from the broad ledge below a broad steep face called "The Wall". Use one of 4 approach pitch options (Don't Bring Me Down, I Turn to Stone, Stairway to Heaven, or Barracuda) to gain chain anchors on a comfortable ledge.

Us and Them starts just right of the chain anchors and climb straight up continuous, steep thin chert for 100 feet right up the middle of the face. The chert is strong but brittle, especially when wet. Be careful to place feet on holds and don't kick them. The holds are half pad crimps to full on jugs. Thin and thoughtful climbing starts immediately off the ledge and doesn't let up until you clip the anchors.

Middle route on "The Wall".
