The Mercy Seat

FA Porter Jarrard, 1992

UPDATED 

Description

Climb Apollo past the second bolt; bear left to blocky pinches below roof. Climb left bolt line past jugs to a hard move to get established in a dihedral. Make a cruxy clip to a big move up and left to a jug.

Race through sequential mini-jugs to the "mercy seat" in the bottom of the big dihedral 1 bolt from the finish. Here it is, self-explanatory throwing up the dihedral required. Very fun!

Depending on your style, this route will might be harder than Pod, and is definitely MUCH harder than Apollo Reed.

Location

Climb Apollo to 2nd bolt and bear left.

Protection

Fixed chains! 9 in all.
