Description
This is a beast of a climb that demands respect. Clipping the chains requires a diverse pallet of climbing techniques. Begin the cloak with immediate difficulty that continues until you reach the highly visible huecos towards the middle of the climb. Slopping edges and important body positioning characterize this lower section that is the route's crux. Manage a rest in the middle of the climb before firing into the dagger. This exposed arete is thuggish and tends to be extremely tiring at such a high altitude, especially after climbing the bottom.
Cloak and Dagger is perhaps one of the better 5.13s in the entire Front Range. Get after it!!
Location
The line follows the bolts out of the shield and through the upper arete on the right side of the overhanging alcove.
