16. Wild Woman **

Wild Woman

Difficulty: 5.10a

Protection: G - pin, bolt, small wires, aliens, med. size cams

Description: From the same Birch as ZEBS head straight up a steep face past a pin and a bolt w/brown hanger. Stay well right of the rusty bolt of ZEBS ROUTE (some people have gotten lost there). Climb right through a steep bulge to gain a nice big left facing dihedral. Climb straight up the dihedral on easier ground and finally through the far left end of the big roof reaching the anchors just above and right of the small pine tree.

The climb got its name from the first ascent which was originally led by Isa without the bolt. The bolt was then added by hand on lead by Nick.

This route takes one day to dry after a hard rain.

First Free Ascent: Isa Oehry and Nick Goldsmith 05-08-01.
