Dreambed, 5.11b

Dreambed, 5.11b

4th-5th Pitches- 60m- 5.10d/ Combining these two pitches is a rope stretcher/dragger. My partner had a hard time clipping the first bolt. I think the ledge got a bit in his head as I clipped it easily after he spent 10 minutes with it. So perhaps if you are shorter, clipping the first bolt might be an issue. If you stay left at the start (following the first bolt), the rock and holds will be better. Follow the short corner to another bolt. Trend right, following several bolts into a much deeper corner above below the medium sized roof. Go into trad mode, move out left under the roof and take the nice crack up and over its left side. You can continue to the wall above for the combination. Make sure you double sling everything below the roof if you are going to do this.
