Crouch start with hands matched on an obvious, rounded rail. Paste feet and dyno/dead point up and right to another rail. Top out.

Bowie is Blackstar, is Lazarus.

Under Pressure

Dance Magic Dance

Stand start and climb the center of the north face.

Sit start with a good left foot, crotch against the arete, the lowest side pull crimp (like the climber in the beta photo) and high right hand sloper/pinch. Slap to the lip, traverse left a few feet and mantle it out. Taller climbers may have to use a higher left hand crimp to start. Jonah got the f.a. to the stand start, then his girlfriend Erika swooped in and scooped him on the f.a. of the much better sit start ha ha!

 The rock is perfect and the moves interesting and sustained. Compression start like the climber in the photo. Left hand on the lowest flat hold, right hand on the side pull crimp, squeeze and right foot heel hook. Reminiscent of The Fountainhead in Black Velvet Canyon.

A nice, secluded feeling setting, even though you're not far from the cars on the loop road. The rock quality is generally great. David, thank you for the amazing music!
