Description

Living the Dream

is a variation to

Love, Honor, and Belay

. It shares the same start and finish, but does a fun hand traverse in the middle. Slightly easier than

Love, Honor, and Belay

, but still technical and physical.

Start as for

Love, Honor, and Belay

, at the right edge of a slab. This is just left of

Tonto

, and 15' right of

Cornered

.

Climb the slab, clipping a single bolt along the way. From a good stance near the top of the slab, place a piece of gear in a horizontal crack located between a good ledge and an upper wall. Move left on the ledge to the left side of the wall. Clip a second bolt, and hand traverse back right to an upward pointing flake (which on its right side accepts small cams). Enter a steep dihedral (which accepts small-to-medium-sized cams). Climb the dihedral, clip a top bolt and exit right just below a chockstone to the anchor. Lower from hooks.

Location

At the right edge of a slab, just left of

Tonto

, and 15' right of

Cornered

.

Protection

A selection of cams from #0.3 Camalot to #3 Camalot. 3 bolts to a 2-bolt anchor with lowering hooks. Anchor shared with

Love, Honor, and Belay

.
