Mayday Malefactor, 5.10c

1st Pitch- 190’- 5.7/I found Handren’s collected beta a bit confusing on this first pitch and had to down climb and move back left into an obvious left facing corner to find proper protection. The varnish up and right looks appealing enough to solo up to the roof, but I broke loose a concrete block sized piece of varnish before I backed off down and left to protectable ground. Follow the obvious corner up into decent varnish and then traverse right on good rock and hand jam through the white bulge above. Continue to a comfortable (but shady and cool in winter) stance and fixed belay. Mayday Malefactor, 5.10c, 5 Pitches, Brownstone Wall North, Red Rock, NV, February, 2011
