Description

Slabby face climb just left of Silent Scream. Unlike Silent Scream just to the right, this section of Pixie Rock is almost completely unfeatured. This is a great climb to slap up a TR and get familiar with JT friction climbing. At the mid point, a crack system slants up and left. Depending on where you move up from the crack, the difficuly of this climb can change by a couple of grades.

The name

Rythym Of The Heat

comes from a Peter Gabriel song of the same name from his 1982 Security release.

Protection

None - free solo or TR from bolts and large gear (long slings necessary)
