Dance of the Pregnant Wildebeest

A stiff, overhanging quartzite route with crack jamming, face climbing, and a bit of balancy stemming.

Start up easy, blocky terrain at the left of the

Bolt Slab’s

North Face and reach the roof with two more-or-less hand-sized, parallel cracks. Follow these cracks up a bit and then bear right a little.

Clip two fixed pins and head farther right and up through overhanging, strenuous territory to the larger, broken crack. Follow this up and around to the east side and the anchors.

At the left side of the

Bolt Slab’s

North Face. A roof with two parallel hand-cracks above is the obvious marker.

Stoppers, small to medium cams, 2 fixed pins, slings for horns, hangers-and-rings anchors.
