Diagonal Venture

Description

Interesting climbing but not sustained in difficulty, and too short.

Angle up right toward right end of roof. Up a bit, then traverse Right under vertical crack. Finish up right side of crack.

. . Variation (harder + less fun): Instead of traversing right, continue more up, then step right to crack.

warning: The rock on and around this route has not been climbed much yet, and much of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber - (and if possible, behind a large tree).

. . . (Lots of vegetation on this rock as of 2017. Be prepared when climbing to navigate around protruding trees and branches, and dealing with holds slippery with grass, lichen, moss, dirt).

Location

Well-defined Right-facing corner below roof. About 30-35 left of obvious D J E A crack and four ft R of tree 8-10 ft up from ground. (Same as climb to Left).

Protection

Protection for Trad leading is unknown and likely inadequate.
