Bird Hunter Buttress, 5.9

Bird Hunter Buttress, 5.9

9th Pitch- 120’- 5.9/ Second best pitch of the day in my opinion (first yet to come). Move right and head up the shaded and mossy corner. There is plenty of good gear in the corner and I found little to no need to clip any of the bad bolts that line the face on the right. Mostly smaller cams, C3’s and nuts fit the openings in the corner. Good stemming to the top of the corner which is longer than it looks from below. Pass a large slung tree at the top and scramble up towards the next large tree below the chimney above or just walk over to the left on the ledge to a small tree and do a .5” gear belay here.
