Peak Mountain 3

The Boneyard

FA 07/10/2016 Greg German, Scott Pratt
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

The pitch starts off low-angle, but it gets interesting pretty quickly. Get through a finger crack bulge to a keyhole in the cliff, then stem the narrowing chimney until you can escape up and left for an exciting finish. The climbing is strenuous in places.

In the alcove below the keyhole, we found a clean bleached femur from some rodent.

Style note: this was led ground-up. The route was cleaned later on rappel and takes better gear now than on the FA.

Location

This is the 3rd crack system from the left edge of the crag. There is a fixed gear rappel station to the left and to the right at the top.

Protection

Standard rack + offsets and/or tricams for some tricky key placements near the top.
