Tower of Power addition

Post by MCpl » Wed Aug 24, 2005 11:25 am

Another route is now open at the Tower Of Power. It was the project in the middle of the wall.

Baby's Got A Temper - 5.13a - 11 bolts (8 fixed). Start as per Biceptual Lover, sharing the first bolt. Travese right and back clean till you reach the first fixed draw w/ black webbing (keep this draw clipped as it will help in keeping the rope aside as you make the higher moves and reduce rope drag). Go straight up through the roofs.

Has anyone else redpointed the route? Just looking for a suggestion as to the grade.

Baby's got a temper.

I have redpointed "Baby's got a temper".....sorry ... i thought it was open and allready completed.
Nice route...any chance of a direct start...would be sweet through that first roof.
5.13a feels about right however (yet again i here the little person cry- it's reachy) it is harder if you can't keep your feet on while setting up to throw for the jug.
I have two shorter friends who climb 5.13+ who can't hit the hold ..... but it all works out in the end.

Do any of you know of other steep lines like this one that need developing? Thanks

It was already open.... Just trying to do the concensus grade thing.

I've been there recently, and it looks like someone is trying to clean of the direct start.
