The Great Vise – 5.10b (trad)

Description:

Climb the obvious black chimney. Bouldery start leads to enjoyable, full-body climbing above. Fairly good pro protects you as you stem to chains.

    Finally brought trad gear to give this a proper send :) A cool route that is worth doing.

    Pretty fun. Some interesting stemming, and at least one heel hook! TR'd as we had no gear for the cracks today.

    Cool black chimney with super abrasive rock, awesome pro, and lots of it, big rests in the middle sections followed by a bit of a tricky finish. Very fun climb. The kind I will go back and do again. We used nothing but a set of cams, but there is room for nuts too.

    A good warmup for the other climbs on the wall. I'm not sure if putting gear behind the giant detached blocks is a good idea... There are some other options. The rock is cool. Looks SUPER dirty from the ground but it's actually this neat crystal stuff embedded in the rock.
