18. Celibacy ***

Celibacy

Difficulty: 5.9+, 85 ft.

Protection: PG, most leaders place hands size gear between 4th and 5th bolt, hand or fingers after 6th bolt

Description: Start 15 or 20 feet down and right of WILD WOMAN at the next small birch, perched on a boulder over a pit next to a cave. Climb steep face past 3 bolts, an easy runout to the 4th bolt and then go 3 feet right and straight up past 2 bolts staying to the right of the big roof. Move left along the edge of the roof past a horizontal hand crack to anchors. Excellent climb!

Nick Goldsmith drilled all bolts by hand on lead with some crazy gear ripping falls, including a 20ft. ground fall...

First Free Ascent: Isa Oehry and Nick Goldsmith 08-22-00.
