The Howling Direct

FA Will Dameron & Mike Varlotta, September 2002

Description

Use the boulder start 8' to the right of The Howling start (5.8) and then climb the center of the wall through the overlaps to the roof mentioned above. Here, climb directly over the last roof to establish on the slab and then straight up the slab (5.9-) before moving back left to gain the exit notch. The crux section here is brief with a single, very small, but decent wire placement. The remainder of the climb (both before and after) offers very nice moves with good pro on good rock and the notch is reminiscent of the classic moderate "roofs" at the Gunks. - Indy's Online Guide
