Alien Autopsy

FA Vaino Kodas, Bob D'Antonio, 2000
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

Climb 5.9 for two bolts up the corner to a ledge, right of the bolt line. Step left, and climb delicate and technical moves on crimps and slopers for two more bolts (crux) leading to a stem rest in the corner to the left under the prominent roof. Rest here, then blast to the chains on slightly easier terrain.

Take care on the first two bolts as a fall will cause a pretty big swing leftward into the opposing corner.

The rock is good quality. It would be 4 stars if it were longer.

Location

This route is in a corner on clean rock about 100m to the right (west) of the main part of the cliff hosting

Designer Genes

and

Soma

in a easy-to-recognize dihedral. When approaching Conspiracy, you will see this corner to the right of the trail; there is a faint fork about 100m before you reach the main wall, allowing you to head straight for Alien Autopsy from that point.

Protection

6 bolts.
