Description

SwitchBlade tackles two striking and distinct features in the middle of the double clutching wall. It begins with demanding technical climbing on a razor arete protected by bolts and finishes with a steep dihedral with a tips crack and deep gas pockets. A footledge halfway up provides a welcome rest between the two sections.

Location

Begin on a large pillar-boulder just left of the Double Helix start

Protection

Six bolts to ledge. Gear above ledge: cams from 00 c3 to #1 c4. Double 0 c3 and .4 c4
