The Iron Cross Traverse

Super classic off the deck traverse. It is possible to do a wildly cool reverse iron cross at the extremely exposed crux.

Follow Quarry Trail to Main Wall of Cougar Crag West. The Iron Cross Traverse starts pitch 1 as for the Original Route. Pitch 2, from bolted anchors atop the Original Route traverse foot rail unprotected out right 25' to the Grassy Gully. From here continue out right on face features underneath head wall roof. At the end of this section is the 15' long crux. Climb ends at oak tree on top of the Sesame Street Buttress.

Standard rack. Bolted anchors.
