Hairy Upper Lip Drip

FA Team Nasty! 2009

Description

A tremendous pitch, sustained once the business gets going, and an amazing linkup with any of the cracks below it. Named for the constant water dripping from a seepage hole on the roof - the cracks' innards are usually dry, but you might have to embrace a few wet edges on the outside. From the Window Box Ledge, scramble up the ledges to the base of the arching corner crack. Punch it up and around the roof, then make a switch left into a handcrack. Climb up as it widens before reaching a ledge. A stembox with some positive, but slightly suspect, wedged blocks leads to the top.Figure out an anchor - one way or another, rappel Finger Lockn' Good to your right. Three rappels with a 70m rope (yes it is mandatory). Maybe grab a quick TR burn on Great Northern Diver on your way down!

Location

At the Window Box Ledge, reached via a couple different routes. The very obvious crack system above the open area of the ledge is the climb!

Protection

A pretty loaded rack. Doubles maybe from .75-3 Camalots. Some small pieces also helpful.
