The Hansche/Knower

Description

Perhaps one of the best hard trad testpieces in the Waterville region, this climbs a steep corner crack in the center of the cliff. Clip a bolt to get past some rotten rock at the start and cast into a tenuous layback up the steep crack. The crux is pulling the lip after which you're treated to a long and glorious series of 5.9 cracks. This is one of those climbs that you write home about. 

Location

Middle of the cliff. Ends at the bolted anchors for It Gets Better (just to the right)

Protection

One bolt, gear: stoppers to #4 camalot.
