After School

Description

I bolted this one after school one day back when I was a teacher. This route begins with some fun pocket & edge climbing up to a cool stemming dihedral, bust some moves out of the dihedral to the upper corner. Positive laybacking up the corner leads to an airy leftward traverse to the anchors. There are some large blocks and flakes in the corner, they appear solid, but avoid pulling on or stepping on them.

There is an alternate finish that avoids the upper corner by going out left on good face holds up to a bouldery set of crux moves below the anchor on slopers, pinches, and tiny crimps. This left variation is 5.12 and is also quality.

Location

It is located on the wall with

Overlooked

. After School is the leftmost route immediately left of

Happy Finish

. Look for a short, fun looking, stemming dihedral at mid-height and grey bolt hangers. There is a plaque at the base.

Protection

13 bolts to a 2 bolt sport anchor. Take 2 or 3 longer draws or back clean a couple up high to reduce rope drag.
