This route is incredible. Climb solid edges on beautiful golden rock to a well-defined crux sequence near the top of the climb. Climbs through a large hueco at about 20' off the ground.

This route was listed in the original MFRP guidebook as Rachel's Project.

Last Gasp

Scramble up to a ledge and head up the short smooth dihedral to a good hold to clip the third draw. Head straight left on jugs with no feet to reach a ledge where you can relax and contemplate the rest of the route.

When you're ready, continue up the beautiful face and move through a tough move involving a narrow pocket. Get to a matched set of large pockets and get ready for the crux.

The guidebook says to used a pair of matched razor crimps - they're kind of sharp, but not awful. This isn't the only beta, as there are a couple of other holds in the area. The left crimp is pretty good if you can get your fingers into it (it's kind of a narrow slot crimp). The right crimp next to it is pretty miserable.

Whichever beta you choose, get to the good hold by the next bolt and follow easier ground to the anchors.

It's 13a in the guidebook but it seems a bit soft.

Twin cracks, the left crack peters out, climb the right crack in the dihedral the faces climber's left. Double rack to BD#0.5.

Challenging boulder problem to great movement and stemming on edges & pockets. Optional one bolt extension keeps the same grade

Arm fist crack in the rock house / right-facing dihedral

Starts right of Coroner, obvious crux from bolts 2 to 3, easy but fun climbing from there to the chains. Equipped by Jake Veresh.

Start out on pockets with some tough pulls which leads to a hueco and then to the top.

Start up with a tough move or two and head to the left side of a hueco. The black rock in the hueco looks like some pretty scary choss but I guess it's alright. Tech up the rounded arete to the anchor.

Some big moves down low lead to a hard crux on the face underneath the arching dihedral / flake. Get through the crux and recover at a good stance before taking on the tough face climbing above. This one stays on you until the anchor.

Start with some tough compression moves on a flake of sorts to gain some better holds. Keep moving up the face, encountering progressively more difficult climbing with the crux coming on crimps and shallow pockets. Climb into one of the most comfortable huecos ever and relax.

The route isn't quite over yet, as you need to climb to the finish with some reachy moves out of the hueco that turn into techy/slab movements to the anchor.

Start with some tough moves off the deck to get to some better holds and eventually follow jugs to the anchor.

Start by climbing up through some chossy rock to slightly better rock and a challenging move above the third bolt.  Be prepared for some runout sections on less than vertical terrain with dirty and friable rock.
