Description

Jam up a vertical crack to the right of Unnamed (5.5) then climb many stacked blocks to the base of the roof. Then pull through the roof (bolt) and good jugs on the left, then make moves up to a horizontal and mantel the lip. This is apparently one of the best roof problems at Echo, I thought it was really fun including the moderate start.

A really fun route through the intimidating roofs just to the right of "Mandrill." Climb easily up the dirty chimney past some loose stuff on the face to the right side of the roof system, aiming for a bolt. Clip the bolt and pull through the roof on BIG holds. 2 bolt anchor up and left (if you don't protect after pulling through the crux, your second will take a big swing if they blow it after unclipping the bolt).

Location

10 feet right of Pappy's pearl. Look for a dirty chimney below the right side of the roof system just to the right of the "Mandrill, Cooler Sacrifice" area. Start here.

Protection

Standard rack. There is one bolt in the roof. I traversed left and lowered off the anchors for pappy's pearl and unnamed.
