Star of David

Description

Note the light tan colored cavity/roof before stepping off the ground. Start up Badlands until your hands are level with good holds on the small slab between you and the tan cavity. Step left onto the slab and traverse your way into the light tan cavity, with hands above the roof. Pull the roof and head straight up the slab above, passing over a diagonal crack on the way. Finish to the right of a small (4”) wobbly hemlock at the edge of the cliff.

Location

Scramble up the choss and broken branches to the base of an overgrown/mossy crack system to the left of the obvious A-Frame and the the right of the classic Mossad. This crack system is Badlands, and it shares a start with Star of David.

Protection

Multiple small trees at the top for TR anchors with webbing or static. Maybe you can get a piece in at the large diagonal crack, or a nut just above the fixed copperhead, but there’s nothing I would want to fall on after that. Better off TR.
