Approach

This route is on the Red Spire, just to the left of Potholes.

Route Description

This is best done as a toprope from the anchors on Potholes. Starting left of potholes, follow a sloping ramp to the anchors atop Potholes. There are two sketchy pitons along the route if you would like to lead it. Protection otherwise is scarce.

Essential Gear

Quickdraws for the two pitons. TR setup if you are toproping it.



"The bizarre trend in mountaineers is not the risk they take, but the large degree to which they value life. They are not crazy because they don't dare, they're crazy because they do. These people tend to enjoy life to the fullest, laugh the hardest, travel the most, and work the least."   --Lisa Morgan
