Whammy

Description

Sidle leftwards up the ramp (most skip the 1st bolt), then head up making long reaches between nice edges. The crux is a short sequence with marginal feet, but it's easily passed with a bit of technique, after which an easy bit of climbing concludes this pitch (the last bolt is essentially superfluous).

A good warm-up, and one of several popular routes in this area that see lots of traffic. There's an extension to this route called

Double Whammy

, 16 bolts to anchors.

Location

Located about 80' left of a a prominent orange streak of rock that characterizes the area (

Tangerine Dream

). The route starts on a narrow, left-slanting ramp of rock, and shares the first bolt and anchors with

Minimizer

.

Protection

7 bolts, ring anchors
