Lockoff Problem

FA old school
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

Start on good holds and shoot straight up the face, avoiding the left arete and the ledge system and corner out right. Gain a slopey crimp, get a good high foot, and pull down until the lip is within reach. This is listed as a 5.11b in Swartling's guidebook (3rd edition) but its height seems more fitting of a bouldering grade and listing.

Location

This is a ways above the Hogleg/Anchorpoint group. The problem is immediately right of the unnamed 5.5 chimney on Picnic Wall, and climbs the narrow face between that chimney and a ledge that is at 10-12 feet. Or.. Same height on the hillside as Ace of Spades, 100 feet north across the talus gully on a scenic perch.  Track Cracks is a sought after route on this wall.

Protection

Pad and spotter.
