King Cobra – V6
Description:
Just before you exit the tunnel into New Meadows, you will find this on the right side. A wall directly behind a big swinging slap can make for some carnage.

katiekistler: Start with left hand meat-hooking and right hand straight on, as Trex compression. Left foot goes on tick, rough spot and heel rests against scoop, right foot goes as far out to right in scoop as possible. Sag under hands until basically as deep in hole as possible with straightish arms. Lurp to left hand and keep it tight to place right heel at very left edge of scoop in order to walk left foot through and slam in knee bar. Bump right hand up once to sloper thing, then again to small crimp side-pull (crimp it). Left hand up to fang jug-thing. Hold the right hand more like a pinch now and put right foot by left to move left knee bar up into higher scoop (calf is basically vertical, not sideways), key is to flag right foot to the right (low on the cobra feature). Reach back left hand to jug, leaving room at bottom for right hand. Crimp the dickens out of the right hand and put right heel on very thin rubbery ridge, stay really tight and reach back with right hand to match, knee kinda pops out but foot stays. Tense everything and kinda slight feet along rock to slow the cut. After holding cut, put both feet up high to the left (left foot on small ridge and right foot on slightly lighter colored part). Really push on right foot and sag on hands to extend left foot and get heel around the corner (have Will tell you if its good). Drop right foot to bump left hand up to slopey pocket pinch. Put right foot back where it was and really twist to get 2ish-finger block right on arete. Sit up on heel and grab left crimp then bump to jug (don't punt!). Get right foot up to get next right hand, then left hand to second pocket on the left (better than first one), then straight up to a choss crimp with right hand

gnat: Don't go right, gaston on the jug and match, scary topout.

I fell off the top of this climb 3 times last season before angrily giving up. Stoked to tick this off this year and feel stronger and more consistent in my movement than last year! -

Start felt impossible until it didn't. Kneebar was key.
-
2024-01-21Yet another knee bar I cannot do, had to start way back in the cave
-
Fun compression boulder with some technical kneebars. Crux was first move lol absolutely stunning boulder! -
-
-
Very technical knee bar start. Top out is a bit tricky.
-
Took a few mins to figure out how to lift my butt off the ground. Ended up finding a very low knee scum to start. Excellent
-
Cool cut loose. Knee bar up the climb -
-
Fuck knee bars, it's all about the raw squeezing power!!! -
Jingus Dingus: This one’s for Kristaps Porzingus! Team single sesh send with Will. End sequence felt impossible and scary and not fun until it didn't and wasn't and was
-
Vengeance after last year's failure. The crux was being here 2nd day-on instead of 3rd. vOv. Should have day flashed but numbed out. Second go.

Fun, hard for the grade for sure.
-
Did the 'loser' start (gaston/pinch), and kneebarred my way up this thing... and still felt hard. Not my style, but a fun line!
-
First V6 I ever tried back in 2011. Fuckin' psyched to take er down today with JD. Sick af climbing to a scary top out! -
-
Watch out for your back.

-
also not sure if I started right. Also made it quite a bit easier with some funky kneebar beta. Great feature.
-
Epic swing, cool start
-
Super fun compression line with the holds gradually increasing in distance. Put it away on the last day, the final send of the trip.

Frustrating figuring out where to start on this one. Super cool natural features in the rock. Too bad the topout was too chossy to risk.
-
Guidebook needs a better description of the start. Fun climb though.
-
Super fun. V4/5 after the first move, methinks.
-
Chill day, but satisfying. Slightly scary topout (all the way) on loose-looking edges.
-
crazy feature. mightve shirt dabbed the first move

MMMM HARD! -
