Description
Great climb on crimpy shallow chickenheads. The angle then lessens to the anchors. Start on the rock sticking up below the first bolt to stay on grade. Start from the lower start to its left for a 5.10ish starting move or two. The crux is the first couple of moves.
A great route to climb if you're in the area bouldering or want to explore the numerous unknown cracks on the long wall behind this rock.
Climb is rated PG-13 due to the runout between the second bolt and the anchors where a fall would be large. However, the angle lessons greatly towards the top so a fall would be unlikely. A non-novice will likely find this runout trivial and on-brand for Cochise.
Location
Behind the boulders "The Heart" and "Frictionless Sex Drive." Approach is a mild 15 minutes with minimal bushwhacking.
Protection
Two bolts to two bolt anchor without chains. Recommend bringing your own cordelete/webbing to rap from the anchor as the old rope slings currently there look pretty old and sun-bleached.
