Peak Mountain 3

Red Gorilla

Description

This excellent short climb would be three stars if it weren'’t for the no-hands rest between the hard parts; well suited to boulderers. Scramble up easy climbing to the first clip, punch it past two more clips, rest, repeat past two more bolts to the chains. See the photodiagram on the

Orbital Decay

page.

Location

Walk east on the ledge system from which

Starstruck

begins until two bolted lines on overhanging rock become apparent above, before the ledge begins to peter out (see the photodiagram on the main page for Strone Crag for the approach to the ledge).

Red Gorilla

is the right line of bolts;

Nimbus

is the left.

Protection

Five draws, plus two for the chains.
