Skinny Mini- 120’- 5.9

  • Skinny Mini- 120’- 5.9/
  • This is one of the best 5.9 single pitch trad leads in all of Red Rock. The varnished wall offers exceptional rock and the climbing is quite diverse on this pitch. It starts out in a thin seam (crux), think first pitch (5.10a) of Wholesome Fullback, that protects with C3’s and wires. Then traverse left to follow a beautiful hand crack that begins to widen before the top of the wall. Stop short and traverse right a few meters to the fixed rappel for False Perception. If rappelling with a 70m rope, you will be required to down climb to climbers right for a few meters after coming off the end of the rope.
