Whale If Yer Scared (Ahab Direct)

20m
FA Nikolai M. 07/15/2022

Description

Directly underneath the main "Whale if Yer Scared" line, the direct start is significantly harder than the main route and ascends the relatively clean low arete/prow of Motown.

Pull a long bouldery sequence that includes some slapping around on a blunt arete, muttering under your breath about the poor feet, and a strong undercling before pulling onto the slab, wiping your brow, and finishing out the route.

Location

Directly underneath the main line of "Whale if Yer Scared"; a 3-bolt line that merges into the main "Whale if Yer Scared" boltline on the slab above.

Protection

13 bolts to ram horns. Expect a lot of rock falling down, helmets strongly recommended for belayers.
