Steep terrain with long throws are the hallmark features of Broken.

Start on banded features down low on light colored stone, then step up into the darkness.

Clip the first of four lead bolts, make a long toss, latch the good hold, and keep on plugging.

Named by the route authors for a friend who was hit by a train and survived...!

Bolting Sucks

Route starts up an overhanging pod.

Climb up through the overhang and finish up the dark face to the right of the corner seam.

Steep to face climbing on crispy holds up a gray slab.

Start in the corner and work up past a couple of large, circular holes.  Step into the holes to clip the first bolt in the middle of the face.

Climb up and just below a large horizontal break, clip the second bolt.

Pass the horizontal feature, clip the last bolt and face climb up to the anchor.

Climbers are urged to resist TRing through the chains as there's not many willing to maintain the anchors at this lower population area.
