This line ascends the blunt arete of the thumb. Start with some steeper powerful climbing, but it soon works into the real meat of this climb with continuous delicate and slightly off-balance climb through crimp, horizontals, and chickenheads to reach the anchor. This is very sustained 5.10 climbing. It really makes sure you deserve the send.

Tom's Little Thumb

Ass or Grass

Hitchin' A Ride

Romp up the roof, and skirt it on its right to tackle the arete crux up high. It packs a punch.

Climb right of the crack that splits

Hitchin'...

and Ass or Grass. Work up through multiple bulges to a shared finish with

Hitchin'...

. This has good movement on good rock.

Hitchin' A Ride has steep climbing for the first half of this one on great holds. Work onto an upper slab through another really interesting hold to reach an overhand and the chains. This has great movement and big reaches on good stone. It will keep you working, too.
