Axe with a Passion

Description

An awkward and grovelly route that may be more worthwhile if climbing the variations to left or right. As is, it's not a lot of fun unless you really enjoy shimmying dirty chimneys. Start up multiple stances to a right-trending crack and a vertical left-hand rail. Get creative with your pro and pull a low crux. Once in the chimney, clip widely-spaced bolts up to an arbitrary ending point with no feet and a set of long chains.

Location

Left side of the main area, just right of a big wide chasm formed by the short arete of Pygmy and the wall behind. Right-trending crack that widens to a chimney at the top.

Protection

Gear to 3", 2 bolts. Anchor with chains.
