Anglin n' Danglin'
Description
Anglin n' Danglin' is a fully bolted sport climb with sustained 5.11- climbing and mind blowing position.Start at the bolted anchor on the left side of the main ledge. Linking pitches is possible but not recommended due to rope drag and large ledges. P1. 5.11a** 30 feet of chossy 5.6 leads to a brief crux and better rock in a left facing corner. 8 bolts. 90 feet.P2. 5.11b**** Sustained stemming in a right facing corner. Avoid the obvious descent anchor above the ninth bolt, and step left to a hidden anchor at a good stance. 9 bolts. 80 feet.P3. 5.10c*** Straight forward face climbing leads to a comfortable ledge. 5 bolts. 40 feet.P4. 5.11a***The money pitch! Crank on the ever steepening flake to a crux at the fourth bolt. The difficulty eases only slightly as you angle n' dangle your way across an exposed traverse to the anchors. 9 bolts. 80 feet.P5. 5.7 A utilitarian march to the summit. Tread lightly as you follow a path of cleaning scars to the top. 70 feet.Descent: four rappels with a single, 70 meter rope. From the anchor atop P4, rap to the descent anchor atop P2. Or, scramble off the back.
