Reach for the Sky

Reaching from an undercling to a distant edge with poor feet is the crux, and once the second bolt is reached the difficulties quickly subside. Large, incut edges gain a sloping ledge below a short headwall, above which a fingery sequence on thin edges gains the anchors.

Originally done without the first bolt and the bolted anchors, all of which were added many years later.
