Ascents in Davis Holland Area by Brandon Workman

Chimney above is not as dirty as it looks and you can stem around the moss and wetness. Getting to it I climbed the offwidth because both it and the hand crack to the right of it were soaked and I felt more secure in a wet offwidth than a hand crack. The next pitch I first tried the 11c var. but got a little spooked traversing over to the sling. The move doesnt seem too bad but the fall would be nasty. Its a little like the sensless thoughts var. lower down, the 10c var. was really nice though and you can protect the horizontal crack nicely. Then fun face/crack climbing above. The final pitch had some steep juggy features but gets pretty run out and it was wet right on the key hold so I clipped the bolt and went up a few feet and then went hard left traverse through some loose blocks to the top. All in all a fun addition to Davis Holland. The pitches are much better lower down on Davis Holland. Ive heard climbers compare this route to the Grand Wall in Squamish. In my humble opinion it is a great route but doesnt come close to The Grand.

second pitch is outstanding
