Tunnel Mountain Personal Pleasure Waves
5.9 The Hound

Just below Winterfell and Hodor, is a small slab just directly above Industrial Playground (The Charltan 10.b/c can access it). It can be accessed by Personal pleasure waves or by walking across the goat trail or start of pitch 2 of Funky Town's 10c/d pitch. My personal thinking was to bolt a new 2 pitches above the middle of Industrial Playground thus creating a new multi-pitch, but choss and vegetation ruined my endeavors from Charltans anchors. I have walked from Charltans anchors to The hound, but it isnt enjoyable. Thus these funny short routes are developed as my first bolted routes. Belay can clip in to bolt on wall. The route always climbs to the left of the bolts. A funny crux move between the 1st and 2nd bolt gains a flake to the left. Easy climbing above.
