Ro Shampo – 5.12a


15m / 49ft, 5 bolts

Description:

Is it 11d? or is it 12a? I've even heard it called 11b! You make the decision. Either way, it's a classic. Start in a sand pit about 25 feet right of Scissors. Step up onto a boulder to grab the first holds. Climb straight up over plated jugs, then kick out left. Crank the crux, then continue hauling on the steep, plated jugs. If you pitch trying to clip the anchors, you will join the majority.

    Sprained my MCL on this climb 4 years ago. Today it was an active-rest-day send.

    went with the right heel beta over the left bicep undercling. unsung beta imho, maybe it was all the squamish heel hooking that made it feel good.

    Felt much easier than 12a. Still a great climb, and a lot of fun. Get on it!
