Continuance (5.9) and Fat Bastard (5.7-5.9)

Continuance (5.9) and Fat Bastard (5.7-5.9)

Some online descriptions call Continuance, which goes over the roof on the left, 5.7, but after a huge block beneath the roof fell, the route became harder. Fat Bastard is sandbagged. The crux is the overhang at the top. If you go well to the left of it, it is still 5.7 or easier. But following the bolts to the anchors is really more like 5.9, as comments on other sites say. Of my party, I was the only one able to do the direct finish, and that was because of a reach advantage, not my technical prowess. Talking Headwall, Virginia-- June 2016
