The End of Poison Ivy

Description

A previously bolted route that's really a trad route.  This thing eats gear and the placements are just downright fun.Starts in a large flaring off-width, although you can also start on the face immediately to the right (steeper, but on good holds).  Stem and chimney your way to the top.  Continue past an old rap anchor to the top for a cruxy but rewarding finish and the real anchors at the top of the cliff. Enjoy the well-deserved view!So much fun!Note that if you are expecting to find some old bolts still in place, you'll have to trust your cams I'm afraid. The bolts have been pulled.

Location

Far left side of the Poison Ivy Wall (Every wondered why it's called the Poison Ivy Wall?  There isn't any PI you say!  Well, not anymore.  There was a time when you couldn't even see rock it was so thick... from top to bottom, left to right.  The entire cave and the wall above it were coated.  Trees of poison ivy, vines as thick as my arm, I kid you not!

Protection

Everything from stoppers to micro-cams to a #3. Bolted anchors
