The Zipper

Description

This route follows the parallel ski track cracks through a black streak in the center of the wall. From the base of the cracks and stem, jam and layback your way to the top. Both cracks eat up hand-sized gear. It will climb really well if it gets more traffic to clear the lichen up. There is a two bolt anchor on the top right. Consider a directional at the top before heading to the anchors to reduce drag and help your second out.

Location

Start on the far left of the lower slab. Find a couple but and C3 placements before gaining the slab and cruising past two bolts to the anchor.

Protection

Lots of hand-sized pieces and 3 bolts on the route with two bolt anchors below the crack and up top.
