Middle Earth, 5.9

2nd/3rd Pitches - 120’- 5.8/ Climb the nicely varnished hand crack as it angles left protecting with medium to large gear. The FAer’s have this as two pitches, but it makes total sense to do them as one. Continue from the top of the crack, following a sketchy ramp out left, protecting with a large piece or two. Be careful what you trust on this ramp. Set up belay on the very edge of another large ledge in a medium crack. Middle Earth, 5.9, 6 Pitches, Frigid Air Buttress, Icebox Canyon, Red Rocks, 2010
