Frisco, 5.10

Frisco, 5.10

1st Pitch- 30m- 5.9/In contrast to the second pitch on this route, this is one of the worst pitches we have established to date in Padre Canyon, but the second pitch makes it well worth it. I have led it twice now and really only ever placed a C4 #4, #5 and #6. The rock is rotten to say the least. There is a chock stone to sling at a short tight off-width section, but even it is suspect. Climb the wide crack to the top and traverse left to the fixed station. I prefer to stay in the off-width, avoiding any face holds in or around the crack due to lack of trust. Frisco, 5.10, 2 Pitches, Padre Canyon, Ivins, UT, 2012
